Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Lose your first several games quickly.
My main opponent right now is my boyfriend (who is also learning the game with me). Nothing we've done has been particularly quick in any sense.
Oooooh I'm so jealous, I cannot convince my man to play with me. It's nice to learn with someone at the same level as you.
Edit: The adage I was told was "To learn go, lose your first hundred games" with the modern addition of "quickly". For what it's worth, I lost my first 57 games on OGS. It is a good way to learn.
Thanks for the actual quote! ๐
That was the advice given to me from my teacher so just passing it along :) I think it means all the options can be overwhelming, so don't overthink it and just play without hope of winning. You'll soon get a feel for what good moves are.
He also lent me a book that helped, so consider doing some reading. I wish I remembered the book's name. There is also this site: https://senseis.xmp.net/
Y'all should also play against other opponents/AI. Intermediate level opponents will help you to grow.
It's an amazing game. Glad y'all found it :)
