Pierre was walking thought a dangerous section of Paris’ red light district with his bodyguard Tsunami who had only begun learning French. Suddenly a butcher who had made a back door delivery to a brothel stepped out. Tsunami reacted instantly, drawing his gun. Horrified, Pierre yelled “Non! Le boucher”! Tsunami shot the unlucky man through the head. Through hysterical tears Pierre entreated “Pourquoi, Tsunami, il n’était qu’un boucher”!? Tsunami plaintively replied "Oh mon dieu, Pierre, mais dans la terreur, vous avez pleurĂ© “Non! Le Boushi!”.

I always thought that declaring “Atari” was so genteel. In my gaming group the usual practice was to yell “Die M$th#@#&$r!!”

Of course, the language would get substantially coarser than that after more beer and Jack Daniels. The level of play would by then be devolved enough to make a GO Master move to Tibet and become a hermit.

What about wrapped Starbursts? They’d be so colourful. I guess Lemon (yellow) for White and Blackcurrant (Purple) for Black; those would complement each other on the colour wheel.

My feeling is they will be too big. You will need a custom made Go board for that.
