I like the idea of taking away the edges. In fact, the engine that generated this board are capable of doing that. But not as a torus. I simply wrap left-right and wrap up-down. This is cleaner, IMO. Go is so pure. I don't like the non-pureness of the edges.

But is it still a good game? I wasn't asking if it's different, that is obviously true. I can imagine it would be a more difficult game - no safety in corners, no base to build from. But does this make the game more trivial, simple or ruin it in some way? - Don On Tue, 2007-02-20 at 10:08 -0800, terry mcintyre wrote: > Not only shiko, but many joseki depend on properties of the edges and > corners.
