Official pbmserver rules for Go
Go, one of the oldest games in the world, the object is to surround territory, as much as possible of course... The 2 players take turns by adding stones to a 19x19 board (or any other size, normal sizes are 9x9 or 13x13), and repeated moves are not allowed (immediately repeated), they are called "ko". The rules are easy but it's very hard to master and computers are far from beating grandmasters. The only downside with this game is the scoring, the rules are not standardized.
A lot of links och Plenty of programs to download
Go Problems
These programs have I tried at least once. The first table is for programs that have my favorite option: setting the computer to play itself with different levels.
