You may not know this, but Go players are ranked as kyus (lesser players)
and dans (better players). A first dan is the lowest of the dans, second dan
is better and so on.

If you are even a first dan, you're very good. I don't play in tournaments
and have no official rating, but if I did, I'd be a mid-kyu player.

Congratulations on your being a dan. ;-)
