cmaloneyYay, I'm getting Russian Spam now. :)12:50
cmaloneyThought it might have been a "press release" from a band since it was sent to the OMC account12:50
cmaloneyNope. Lose 2-4 pounds weekly.12:50
brouschBy slam dancing to our music12:56
mrgoodcatlol13:27
cmaloneyHeh, definitely.13:28
cmaloneyGood morning btw14:07

ColonelPanic001cmaloney: stop adding Go books on goodreads.14:17
ColonelPanic001Not fair, you're not supposed to get better at it14:17
cmaloneyColonelPanic001: Heh. :)14:21
cmaloneyFunny thing is I haven't read all that much14:22
cmaloneySpeaking of which, if anyone wants to play more Go LMK14:23
cmaloneybrousch: It's a great way to learn. Seriously.14:23
cmaloneyNot sure if I'd go up against random strangers on the internet yet.14:23
mrgoodcatwhy do they destroy you?14:23
brouschWhat's a good way to learn?14:23
cmaloneyUnless they're Nolan Bushell, in which case it'd be an honor to receive an asskicking on the Go board from him.14:23
ColonelPanic001yeah, if you want to learn to play go, just get in there and start losing14:24
ColonelPanic001the famous quote by some master go player is "a beginner should lose their first fifty games as quickly as possible"14:24
brouschColonelPanic001: That would ruin my perfect record14:24
cmaloneybrousch: There's also some decent Go problem apps on the Play store14:24
cmaloneyTsumego Pro is nice.14:24
ColonelPanic001brousch: I don't gamble for the same reason. I have bought exactly one scratch-off lottery thing. Paid a dollar, won $1. I win.14:24
cmaloneybrousch: There's also some pretty good books out there14:27
cmaloneybut I'd highly recommend getting either an app for a tablet (phone can be too small at times)14:27
cmaloneyBW-Go is good for online play, GoDroid is excellent for solo play14:28
jrwrenand here I thought you were talking go-lang14:28
cmaloneyjrwren: Yeah, this one pre-dates it a little bit. :)14:29

brouschI don't want problems. i want solutions!14:37
cmaloneyYou'll get solutions14:37
cmaloneyhttp://shop.gogameguru.com/go-books/go-ebooks/ <- This is a decent series, though the author is very chatty in his books14:38
bookiebothttp://goo.gl/4DlcRc - Go eBooks - Download Go Books14:38
cmaloneyself-published and in need of an editor, but otherwise quite good14:39
cmaloneyAnd there's lots of published Go books out there. I'm finding Beginning Go is a decent second-book but not a terribly good first book14:40
cmaloneyOr rather a companion book14:41
cmaloneyAnywho, that's my Go talk for today.14:44
cmaloney:)14:44
cmaloneyPlease exit throught he gift shop14:44
brouschIs there a Go server written in Go yet?14:56
cmaloneybrousch: Consider it an opportunity14:56
brouschI would name it GoGo and make jokes about whether it boots or not14:57
cmaloneyWould plugins be called "gadgets"?15:00
cmaloneyThen you could have GoGo gadget arms15:01
brouschoooh, that's good15:01
cmaloneyI'm sure I'm not the only one to think of this. :)15:01
brouschcmaloney: On the topic of games, I think you suggested Fluxx to me a while ago. We gave it a try and enjoyed it15:04
cmaloneybrousch: I'm glad. I hate that game. :)15:04
cmaloneyBut it works for some people.15:04
brouschheh15:05
brouschI need to work my family up to munchkin15:05
brouschThis is a pretty good start15:05

cmaloney$10 and a decent 2 player game15:09

cmaloneykk15:11
brouschThey have different "flavors" too15:11
cmaloneyYeah15:11
cmaloneyThough iirc Fluxx has some PG cards in there15:12
cmaloneyI think there's weed references in there.15:12
cmaloneyminor references at best15:12
cmaloneyThere's also some "programming" games out there.15:14
cmaloneyDuck Duck Go, Robot Rally15:14
cmaloneyHave only played Duck Duck Go. JoDee didn't care for it.15:14
