Lies about this game being fun

Why donā€™t you consider asking for a teacher game rather than completely writing off a game you picked up 3 days ago?

Not true. I personally think that its super fun to hate myself over my own stupidity.

Well, it is a very complex game, with a long learning curve

Maybe try watching some YouTube videos with instructions for beginners? Maybe try playing some 19x19?

Or donā€™t! Itā€™s not up to us to entertain you!

But yeah, whatā€™s the point of coming into a giant art museum, looking at two tiny paintings, and storming out in a huff declaring that all visual art is terrible and boring?

Iā€™d say play in real life, with a physical Go board & stones, if you havenā€™t already.

Read some books. Janice Kimā€™s Learn to Play Go is an excellent place to start. Find a teacher. Play with people you like; friends

Iā€™m a fan of both Go and Dwarf Fortress, maybe I just have some masochistic tendencies Iā€™m not aware ofā€¦

ā€œCorrespondence Go: itā€™s like Dwarf Fortress, but you loose more slowly.ā€

That would make Blitz Go equivalent to a Tantrum Spiral.
