Christmas-eve (?)^^ Party

On the 24th of December, special guests visited BIBA.


Kim Yoon-young (3p)


An Seong-jun (3p)


Jin Seung-jae (ama 7d, formal 1st group younguseng)


Lee Min-ho (ama 7d, formal 3rd group younguseng-greenpig on kgs)

We played some Baduk games, first a team tournament, then relay tournament.
Relay tournament was tough, we played only one game but 7 people were Black and 7 were White. Every 10 moves new player played. :) The avarange rank of the teams were about same, but sometimes there were big difference between players, so the game was quite fun. :)






After the Baduk games, we played some English quiz games, so the special guests could show their English power, or I should rather say telepathy power. :)


Let me show some example:

Jin Seung-jae: Animal. Wondering at night.....
at first noone had any clue, but after few seconds
Kim Yoon-young came up with the solution: Cat

Still not sure how could she know :)

Another example for strong telepathy:
Seung-jae: Animal. It has big mouth.
Yoon-young (after one second): Hippo.

Well... :)

But sometimes telepathy didnt work:
Yoon-young: Not alive, not dead.
Seung-jae: Zombie.
(Seung-jae missed the small important fact that it was a baduk term :) -> ko :)

Cute video about Yoon-young :) --->

After this game, we created a new game. It was about which team can replay a pro game faster.
There were 6 people in one team. Two people tried to replay the game according how the other people explained the next move for them.


Yurika, a Japanese lady just arrived on this day around 4pm.
She joined the games immediately. Yurika was Black and tried to replay a game with Seung-jae (White) together.
In the other team, An Seung-jun and Foosh were replaying. Only thing we worried about that An Seung-jun might know the game by heart. So we chose an old game. ;)


Genial is telling the pro where to play ;-)

After these games, we went to eat all together (Blackie, Dia, Yoon-young, Seung-jae, Min-ho, Zhang Xiang /to be honest at this time he was rather Tomato:)/, Alvin, Foosh, Daniel, Book, Genial and Kerem.) Unfortunately An Seung-jun couldn't join for dinner and later Daniel and Minho couldn't join for karaoke either.
Anyway Blackie invited all of us for a nice dinner, then we ended up in a marathon karaoke. Book amazed us by showing how many Korean songs he knows. :)


The lady from the restaurant couldn't manage to take a picture, so Blackie sacraficed himself, that's why he is not on the picture :( :)

As for a European, it was quite an extraordinary Christmas-eve, but really fun. Hopefully everyone enjoyed. :)

Team Tournament for Chips

We asked Yoo Jae-seong's school, if 3 kids could come to play with the actual top 3 players in BIBA. (Ondra, Fredrik and Ali).
Usually the kids from Yoo Jae-seong's school are coming every Thursday, but we thought it would be a useful training for the weekend.
On Saturday, there will be a lighting tournament in Daejon. Ondra, Fred and Ali are going. Time setting will be only byoyomi (30 seconds 2 times).
So today they play similar time setting, 5 minutes main time and byoyomi 30 seconds 2 times.
The first round BIBA won with perfect score, 3-0, however in the second round they lost all their games. Therefore the final round is going to decide whether the kids get chips or not. The BIBA students promised to the kids, they will buy them chips if they win the team tournament. (motivation for the young kids to play more seriously :)


The current result is...


Let's see how it will end........
