http://www.seattlego.org/events/This is a great way to play some intense Go face to face. 3 rounds,
Japanese rules. The tournament is free, but you need to pay for your
visit to the Go Center, or be a voting member of the Go Center, or be
under the age of 18, or be a "new member" which gives you ten free
visits.
Registration is from 10:00 - 10:45 sharp. You can call 206
545-1424 if you will run late. If you call in, your clock starts 10 min
into the first round, and after 30 min, if you do not show, you
forfeit. If you come before 12:30 and register, you will probably be
able to play in the second round. First round starts at 11 am. Second
round starts by 1:30, but may start sooner. If your first game runs
long, you do not have much time for lunch. We recommend that you bring
food to the Go Center, rather than planning on going out to get
lunch.
AGA membership is required; please check to see if your membership
is current, and try to renew it online if it needs to be updated. More
info on membership is at
www.usgo.org.
You can join the AGA or renew in person at the Go Center as well, but
please come early to do that. You do not have play all three rounds -
just be sure to tell the Tournament Director what your plans are.
