Club attendance has been great lately. Keep it up, everyone! We're regularly having about 12 people there, and sometimes as many as 21! Coming up in the next month there is a tournament in Pittsburgh as well as a demo at the Ann Arbor District Library - check out the calendar. Also, Jon has been putting together some great lectures .sgf's on the Resources page. Make sure to thank him if you like them!

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.
