When you need to fill in the gap between your walls … choose dame.
Ykyaga when you ask yourself if you should mention on your curriculum vitae that you are at the first place in the OGS 13x13 ladder.
You are at the top of two handfuls of ladders, but I don’t see any 13x13 ladders in there
Regarding go on a CV: I was advised to put my go achievements on my CV. As “unimpressive” as they may look to us in the go community, because we’re a relatively small community and all know each other, they do seem important to outsiders. Especially if you won any championship, regional or national, do put it on your résumé.
On the other hand, an achievement on an internet go server, I wouldn’t mention it. I would be afraid it sounds too much like “I play video games”.
You know you are a Go addict when on your CV you could write more about Go than about what you are studying.
Be prepared to stay calm after the inevitable “oh, it’s like checkers then” when you try to explain Go to them.

No, I was responding to the preceding posting of a serious article on go addiction.
I see that article as a list of things that could be posted here but I didn’t read it carefully. Its tags are “baduk” and “humour”
Did you read “any of the following”?
You know you are a go addict when you think that humorous posts on go addiction are serious.
Everything is Go-related, if you try hard enough.
I misunderstood it. Sorry about that! I guess @jlt is right.
Ykyaga when you watch internet disconnections on the videos of Drbaduk with your own internet disconnections problem.
You know you are a Go (/moderation) addict when you have to convince everyone else that you are not or that it is not relevant, maybe
Ykyaaga when YouTube makes music suggestions similar to names of go players.
My mom was watching a cdrama and out of the blue she said “Oh, Go, they’re playing Go”.
I think my family is getting addicted by association.
