stupid babies need the most attention
I posted in the thread they've got in tradgames discussion, but this one seems to be a bit more official. I've been meaning to get more into Go for a while now; I've played approx. 1 game every two months for the last year or so, and that needs to change. I'm on KGS as BaseCase; gonna try to log some time on there this weekend.

Here's a random stupid question that I haven't been able to find an answer for: In game records, does 'B+R' mean that Black won or lost? I know it means the game ended with a resignation, but I'm so new to the game that I can't tell who won just by looking at the ending position. I'm sure it doesn't help that I just grabbed some random pro games to read; those can be pretty hard to understand for someone without much experience. I think I'll hold off reading any more games until I play enough of my own to know what's going on.

Has anybody with an iPad tried out SmartGo Kifu? It looks pretty cool, but I don't really want to spend $20 on an app that's not worth it.

Oh hey there, Go thread. Apparently I made a lazy attempt to get into Go about 8 years ago, according to my post history. Well, I'm trying again! In the past almost-a-decade, has anyone released a good play-go-against-humans iPad app? I've got SmartGo Kifu and it seems like it'll be good for practice problems and game review, but after a little googling it doesn't seem like there's been much movement on the, for example, iOS KGS client front. Hopefully I'm wrong?

Just gave PandaNet (Go) a try and it seems reasonably decent. Thanks for the recommendation! Looking forward to getting repeatedly crushed for the next several months :)
