Thanks. Today's game against John was a good one Uploading now.

I play the iOS version of this on my old iPad that I keep in ‘my office’, just about every time I have to sit and take care of some business. It’s been a long time since I’ve played in real life, although I hope my Grandniece will be ready for it shortly. Enjoy!

@@omegacon4 Thanks for the comment. I guess using a video is to let the viewer know who is streaming. I’m not gregarious by any means, so I guess I speak when the mood strikes me or when a viewer makes a comment. There are far more knowledgeable folks to watch if you want a play by play or historical perspective. I don’t pretend to be more than I am. I just do my thing

@@longago-igo By all means, do your thing. Watching a "talking head" that doesn't really communicate to the viewer can be distracting from the video itself. Your content looks good otherwise!

@@omegacon4 There are some videos where I have a lot more to say, such as Ghost of Tsushima, where I have a strong opinion about how one should approach it, so the amount I have to say is greater. Although I like war games on video and boardgames (I’ve got all of Memoir ‘44), I’m not very good at them, even more so as I’ve gotten older, so moaning and groaning as I get badly hit is sometimes all there is.

Thanks! It's fun if you want to farm only or if you want a fighting challenge, as well.

Yes, weird. I don’t usually ‘like’ my own videos, but I’m gifting my ‘like’ to you. Thanks for stopping by. It was another tough one for Cameron.

Getting to know the rules and strategy better is the purpose of playing.

Thanks once again.

Thanks for commenting! I love this game.

Thanks for the comment Fred. If you had seen my tagline on Twitch, you’d know it’s “If it’s not a production, it’s just a game of Go”. If you were to go back further, to when I was streaming from my old place, at a table on a folding goban, I had an even more ‘flipping’ approach, as I had highly mobile closeup cameras left and right. Having switched to using a floor goban at my new place, the look of my videos has changed too. There are lots of other Go streamers and TH-cam video producers that I like to watch. I also like a single online view (when they do it). If my personality were more like them or I had greater Go knowledge, I’d probably make videos more like them, since my approach certainly has its issues.

Good question with two answers. 1) Davy is from Tennessee, so all our future games would have to be online. We had earlier set him up with an account on OGS and we played there so he would be familiar with it for future games. Also, I wanted to show him and my son how I usually did my show. 2) In order to only play on the real board would require moving even more things around. As it was, I had moved the over-the-shoulder camera and the weather camera in order to have a right side and a left side wide view of the three of us. To play only on the real board, I would have had to move the board and the boom camera (or used a different camera as the board camera) and probably reset the lights to get proper illumination without glare off the board in the new position. Also, I would have wanted to have a camera for each of us, which means I would have to design a scene in OBS for each of us and then make a new page on the Stream Deck to incorporate the new scenes with the old ones that I could still use. A lot of work to set up, then to put back the way it was. 3) Oh, there’s a third. Most people only watch games online, so watching on a real board is interesting, but may be a little disorienting. My usual setup switches between the OGS view and the real board view, so the audience gets the familiar with the unique.

Thanks. I'm old, so I'm slow!

Thanks for the comment. I have a wall of games, but not many players these days. However, I hope we can start playing live again soon. Unfortunately, I probably won't be recording from the dining table again, but perhaps some solo games from the 'Studio'.

@@longago-igo I hear you!

Muttsist That’s true and I advised against it, but my wife has yet to acknowledge the full potential reach of the virus.
