Is there anybody playing go?

It´s an asian game, often compared with european chess. It probably originated in China (where it´s called weichi) maybe about 3000 years ago (?) (it´s the oldest game in the world) and most popular it is in china, japan and korea (there it´s called baduk).

I think this game might look boring but when you play it few times, you find it really good. I started about 9 months ago and I still love it, in my opinion it´s much better then our chess. I´m maybe little addicted O.o



I´d like to know if you play it, if you have any experiences with it, how famous is this thing in your country (for example there are about 10 people who know what it is in my town O.o) etc...

BTW check out anime Hikaru no Go- it´s great
