1st post ever!

Hello World,

So this is the day when I take my first steps toward my GO improvement.
Right now I'm 23kyu on KGS. At least that what it shows. My "?" mark has dissapeared on 24 kyu, since then I have managed to get to 22k and of course dropped down right back to 23k again. So far I have played over 40 games on KGS and i'm glad to play more.
I want to improve and get to 1D.
This is my goal.

As for the stats:
Currently, I'm studying "Second Book of GO", when I get tired I do Life&Death problems in Many Faces of GO, I'm working around problems of lvl 40-50. I couldn't make it farther yet. I'm also studying the Graded Go Problems - Vol 2, Dunno why, but I have desided to skip the 1st one, I think I haven't missed much by doing so. As soon as i'm done with "2nd book of GO" I want to start the "38 Basic Josekis" I think it is the main part that i'm missing right now. I get quite confused on how to reply and play in particular situation. I need some book that could help me out.

I have also tried IGS server but it was quite hard to find a game there. Thus, I have switched to KGS, it is a nice server, but the software options they use are a bit low. Also, I want to try the cyberoro server too, I have seen many players there, a lot more than on KGS and probably much stronger too.

Since today, I will add more information with every next hour or day, week, decade or month. Let's hope that we won't have monthly breaks.


Ok then, here we go!
