the best go board plug in. Even better than most desktop UI

Good - would be better to add a picture about it - graphically hardcore For example Auschwitz-Birkenau 3rd game: let's take a look, 28 : 258 - two camp and still several empty space, inculeded 1(!) black spot - from here you can win for empty sace. So from now the developer should say He or she (not Free for he;?) Sheforhe whatever-QlptD - that he is not a neonazi, no? ('cos let's take a look if he is american and his father made the joice: no jews for Us, well than he is only in that scenario not make mistakes if he (or she) don't follow his unkle - mother - father -smile... and so on... ) I MEAN who is responsible for this? - The United States of America - Israel - Developer ... - but you know becouse i am exist Hungary is not - and that's for sure. And it hacks me inmediatly :) So who won p*ther g*cker? I think it's me
