Four of us drove to Ft. Meyers last Saturday to participate in their tournament — many thanks to our Josh for keeping us informed and for driving, many thanks to their Josh for organizing it! Our Josh took second in the dan division (congrats, Josh). It was a lot of fun, but a long day. … Continue reading Ft. Meyers tournament results & ratings
Josh indicated that the Ft. Meyers Go club is holding a one day tournament on Saturday, Dec. 6. Several in our club are considering going, and there’s discussion of carpooling. Details to follow soon. P.S., During a recent skimming of AGA rankings, I noticed that our own Josh (ranked at 4d now) is the strongest… Continue reading Ft. Meyers tournament, Dec. 6
I have created a publicly viewable Google spreadsheet with the following information: Member information (rank, KGS handles, etc.) Collective go book library Several people have asked me to make my spreadsheet public, but I have been reluctant for privacy reasons. To address this, I’ve made a public version of the spreadsheet that presents only first… Continue reading Google spreadsheet: collective library & member info
Josh is workng hard to get the official UCF Go Club up and running. When it is, we will have the opportunity to get a room on campus and meet there. He doesn’t want to give up our weekly Go Orlando meeting at Barnes & Noble, but add a second meeting. That way members could… Continue reading Voting on when to meet
The 2008 Fall semester at UCF began this week, and (by coincidence or not) the club saw a large block of potential new members attending last night. I hope they will all return. It occurred to me that it might be helpful to mention a few resources to those new to the game of Go.… Continue reading New semester, new members?

I suppose quarterly and semi-annual statistical reports make the most sense in general. (Or, perhaps, no reports… Continue reading Statistics update
I have upgraded the underlying CMS for the website (which is WordPress) to the latest version. This shouldn’t affect much about the site to the readers, but it fixes several under-the-hood problems. I also added (and slightly hacked) a plugin for producing go diagrams. This should be available even in the comment sections. You can… Continue reading Upgrades and plugins for the board
Several of us have been talking about organizing some kind of event this summer … or possibly in the fall (or both). We are still in the early stages of this discussion, and Josh is the final arbiter of all such things, but I was hoping to get some feedback from people about what they… Continue reading Summer and Fall event ideas
I have been collecting data about club members (strengths, attendance, etc.) for a little over a month. The process is just in its early stages, but I hope to keep it up. I have this kind of information for about 14 people, though Josh has 26 people on his email list, so I clearly have… Continue reading Go Orlando’s strength and attendance data
I am trying to construct a little spreadsheet with some information about members of Go Orlando (nothing seriously personal). Obviously no one is obliged to provide any of this, but if you are interested and do not mind giving it to me, please email me ( paul -AT- tesseract -DOT- org) the following: Name AGA… Continue reading Collecting club member information
