@lukasz why not just embed eidogo? that way we can actually submit variations – baudtack Aug 19 '10 at 18:33
@docgnome: I asked about the pictures because we can embedd them directly into the question. Embed eidogo? How? Will it show directly on the site? Just-a-link is not enough if we want this site to be successful. – Łukasz Lew Aug 19 '10 at 19:15

This is a good example of off-topic, I think. But I've used my five votes. Anyway, all we need is 20 users to move on to planning the website. – ixtmixilix Aug 10 '10 at 23:43
Good indeed. You can move your votes if you want, I did :) – Łukasz Lew Aug 12 '10 at 18:45

This feels more "anime-related" than "go-related" to me. – SolarBear Jul 15 '10 at 19:13

Which is clearly off-topic... It's not "Not a good example" because we definitely DON'T want these kind of questions on the site – samoz Jul 16 '10 at 12:07
Well, Hikaru no Go definitely was a huge help in popularizing Go. – Łukasz Lew Jul 16 '10 at 13:10

No, I don't think we should talk about any of those. – samoz Jul 16 '10 at 21:49

Intended as a canonical off-topic example. – Łukasz Lew Aug 2 '10 at 10:42
How can you ever answer such a question. Too subjective (even though the answer is obvious - duh?) :-) – Nicholas Aug 12 '10 at 19:23
Yeah, matters of taste if you play casually, otherwise you'll have to define "better" better. – manveru Aug 19 '10 at 7:17
