Black thinks he's playing Go and white thinks he's playing chess. Although a 7 x 7 board is a bit small for go, it is not unusual for a beginner to play on such a board -- hax (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
It is a 9x9 go board! (usually used for learning, as its smaller, less strategic, and quicker to finish game, whereas regular go is played on 19x19 intersections). Olivier.
The picture on xkcd.com is changed. The bishop on e4 is removed and the one on c1 moved to d2. 141.101.93.11 08:48, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
