I've given serious thought to the game I want to dedicate
some spare time to. It's down between Chess and a variant
and Go. From what I hear, Go is the simplest and deepest
game in existence. Does any here play either of these games?
Can you describe the depth of understanding you're able to
achieve?

ehh.. isn't Go very hard?

there's some myth: no two games of go are alike.

(if you are indeed talking about the japanese board-game)

go is anything but simple. the basic rules and the layout
are, but like chess, there is much more to it. according to
the rulebook, about 10000 games of GO should make you feel
familiar with the basic rules.

sounds like it isn't worth learning the game.

needless to say, i played this game once, and decided i we
weren't meant to be. the idea of it is fascinating though.

the the basic principles of go are relatively easy. some
people are insanely good but that doesn't mean you can't
play. just look for someone that's on your level. go is
fun.
