Despite all the server woes, I had my first day playing Go. My fiancée and I were out for over two hours, met a dozen other people out playing. I thought for sure that the hype was gonna be localized to big countries like always, and I've never encountered something like this. Everyone's just open to talk, and it's really fun. It's so easy to spot people playing it, and an old lady stopped us to ask about how it all worked, since she'd heard about it on the news.
The game froze at catching pokémon probably 30 times, the three paw bug sucks, and we ran into a haunter that just disappeared before we could catch it because of server issues. Hoping to get to level 5 today so I can get a team. There are two gyms within 150m of my house, and the next one is 500m away. Really lucky!
