Great news everyone! Our very own Jon Hop has published two fantastic books for players in the 30k-10k range. Check out a preview and buy them here: www.sundaygolessons.com.
Also, we found out the camera died for the last 3 talks of Ignite Ann Arbor, so there is no video of Eric's talk. So sad!!

Last night Eric was one of many presenters at Ignite Ann Arbor, which was an amazing event. He talked about how Go is a wonderful game and everyone should play. Hopefully we find a copy of the video soon, and hopefully we start seeing many new faces at the club!

It's almost fall! We're back from the 2007 Go Congress (check out the pictures) and we're ready to rock!
Congress results:
Jin Chen - 12th place overall (379 people total, 65 were 5D and up) Jin also finished 14th in the North American Ing Masters Championship.
Jon Hop - 1st/36 (1 Dan)
Albert Guo - 7th/36 (1 Dan)
Eric Jankowski - 16th/36 (1 Dan)
Dave Frankel - 5th/17 (1 Kyu)
Bill Phillips - 7th/17(1 Kyu)
Mike Anuzis - 3rd/22 (2 Kyu)
Sean Langelier - 10th/22 (8 Kyu)
Grace Phillips - 3rd/4 (19 Kyu)
Ann Arbor fielded two 3-person teams in the Club Team tournament. Team 1 (Jin, Jon, Eric) won the first three rounds, advancing to the semifinals. Team 2 (Mike, Albert, Sean) lost in the 1st round and did not deserve their trip back home. Incidentally, if you accidentally drive East when you get onto I-76 near Lancaster, you will be going about 30 miles before you can turn around.
