Go:setting up

From Games

The site uses Template:Go. You can use:

• your userpage (for a good example, see User:KainNiemand)
• a subpage
• (perhaps with less need to scroll during the game) one of the "ready" games listed at Go#Games_in_progress_or_ready_to_play

To play, just copy the following (from the display here, not from its edit box) and paste into the chosen page:

{{Go|=

[edit] Playing a stone

To play a stone just add "w" for white or "b" for black, removing the space.

Best to note the actual move in the edit summary.

[edit] Capture manually

Sorry, not programmed, so you have to replace all the captured stones with spaces. Probably best to "Save" after your move, in case something goes wrong with the removals.

[edit] Adjusting display size

The parameter at the end of the template controls the apparent size of the board (technically it is the size in pixels of each square). A larger setting results in a larger board:

{{Go|=

  19 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  18 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  17 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |w|b|b| | | |=
  16 | | | |x| | | | | |x| | |w| |w|x|b| | |=
  15 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |b|w| | | | |=
  14 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  13 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  12 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  11 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  10 | | | |x| | | | | |x| | | | | |x| | | |=
   9 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
   8 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
   7 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
   6 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
   5 | | |w| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
   4 | | | |x|b| | | | |x| | | | | |x|w| | |=
   3 | | | |b| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
   2 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
   1 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
      a b c d e f g h j k l m n o p q r s t 
 
 |28}}

This becomes

19

	a	b	c	d	e	f	g	h	j	k	l	m	n	o	p	q	r	s	t

And, consequently, a smaller setting will give a smaller board; however, sizes under 19 will cause the board to render incorrectly.

[edit] Different sized boards

You can also play Go on a 13 by 13 board. This is the template to use then:

{{Template:Go 13x13|=
 13 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
 12 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
 11 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
 10 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  9 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  8 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  7 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  6 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  5 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  4 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  3 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  2 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
  1 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |=
     a b c d e f g h j k l m n
 |30}}

Similar options for the "display size" parameter at the end.

Anyone wanting a 9x9 can try to create Template:Go 9x9!
