1,000,000,000,000X1,000,000,000,000 Grass Growing Competition

As many GO enthusiasts often criticize chess for being too simple or having a much more finite list of game possibilities, I submit to you that GO is also too simple. Allow me to introduce 1 trillion by 1 trillion GG. All thats required to play is a lawn and a pretty good memory. It's a million times more complicated than chess, and a million times more boring, so GO players should love it, as GO is a mere one thousand times more boring than chess.

I am worried about some of the logistics of this game. A standard game of GO takes about 3.7 years to finish, will take about 43.9 years to finish, and since humans only live about 75 years or so, this is a potential problem, however you should still be able to get a game in faster than the NBA playoffs conclude.

Heh. Don't judge go speed by forum go. Chess played on here takes forever, too!

I haven't opened a single GO thread. I'm judging it by the speed it takes OTB. Though you guys are playing 9x9 which is faster but is not rrally go.

in, if we can start in the next 12m, o/w I'm likely to be AFK sometime in the late endgame.

What are the rules of "grass growing" ?

Chess is practically solved, no?
So it has to be one of the most boring games there is.

I'm pretty sure supercomputers will win like 80% in non speed chess vs humans.
