Go Tourney

Hi everyone
There is an upcoming Go Tournament that the Go club will be holding next month. There is currently no set time or date yet, however we want to know who would be interested.
So to all those who want to participate in the thrill of fighting for thy name and honour please send the club an email or a comment on Facebook (for those fb addicts) with your name and rank.
For those who are only interested in witnessing the bloody battles (figuratively of course), please come and support your fellow members and munch on some free food!
If you are unsure about your rank, fear not for you can simply come to one of our regular meetings (Monday or Friday) and we will help determine your rank.
Btw, this is your new Publicity Officer
