One Color Go

One Color Go is so called because both players are using the same color of stones. This adds to the complexity because you have to remember which stones are really white and which are really black. You can play this on KGS and record a sgf of the game.

The stronger player creates a Teaching Games and takes White.
Black can initially play a stone as normal.
White now uses teaching mode by pressing CTRL-T.
White - while holding down CTRL and Shift - clicks on the board to change stone colour.
White now release CTRL and Shift, waits a second, moves the mouse about, and can now place a Black stone by clicking on the board.
White passes control back to their opponent using CTRL-G.
Black should do the same as above, now cycle.

To capture stones you have to use the Edit Tool.

Although this is a method, obviously you can't play ranked, and if it's only both of you in the game and you both forget where you are, it's useful to have someone else join and make a note of all moves played and tell you if a stone is dead if none of you have pointed it out.
