It's confirmed: I'm a Kwontom Addict.

A few questions:

1. Are there more than the four categories I've spotted - Addict, Fan, Noob, Admin?

2. Are the categories just based on number of puzzles solved?

3. Was this somehow inspired by the ratings on goproblems.com? That's a bit left-field, but I imagine there'd be a strong correlation between Kwon-Tom Loop and Go players. tzukanion, OldBean, jamin and myself all play, and I suspect astrokath of pirating Go anime.

1. There might be another one...

2. Yes.

3. Interesting... hadn't seen that site before! I played Go many years ago, but (a) never got very good and (b) never really found many people to play against, which probably explains (a).

Where did you get your confirmation from?  [Edit... just spotted the obvious!!]
I'm guessing I'm a Kwontom addict as well...

I have a Go board at home, but have never actually played, due to lack of opponents.  When it comes to these type of things, my husband is somewhat reluctant to test his wits against mine, for some reason...

As for the last comment... ah, you'd be wrong there.
I'm not the only astrokath on the web, and have a completely different username on e-bay.

My secret identity remains a secret for at least another day!

What are the number of problems solved for each category? Is this it?

0-10: noob
11-100: fan
101-200: addict
201-300: admin
301-...

I imagine that 'admin' will be able to edit forum posts, add puzzles etc., so it's a 'special' user level.

So what exactly, Foilman, is the real table to determine your rank?

Pretty much as you guessed, but without the admin bit, which is me only.

I dont think that I was exact. Astrokath is an addict and she has 276 puzzles completed. Could you give me the exact chart? Just so I could expect when I rise.

When you get to 100, you'll become an addict.
After that... who knows?

I just became an Addict   But a 60 minute week feels pretty inaccessible.  I've made steady improvement in times, but probably not enough to make the 59rs.  Continuing to miss things so many other people must be seeing is frustrating.
