I've got a question about that actually, I'm currently mining ZEC, which is also equihash. Will it be as simple as pointing EWBF at a BCG pool and wallet, or will I need to do some other configuration? Does the mining program know what kind of coin it's mining, or does it just receive data from the pool server and process it, no matter what it is?

It's just another rubbish altcoin, but if you really wanna mine it -

It uses the Equihash algorithm.  The same as ZCash, ZClassic, ZenCash etc.  Google EWBF miner (for Nvidia), or.... I'm not really sure what the best Equihash miner for AMD is.
Step 2.  Find a pool that supports BTG mining.  I know of none atm, but I haven't looked.

If you're a complete noob and just want to get in to mining easy, Nicehash is it.  On average it's less profitable than figuring it all out yourself and finding a good pool, but that's the price you pay for convenience I guess.  I've personally found zpool calculates hashrate and earnings really accurately.  Their fee is higher than average, prolly cos they don't rip you off behind the scenes.  Just my opinion.  Lots of pools make things so vague you can't really question what you're earning.  Nanopool was decent when ETH mining was the most profitable.  I highly doubt they'll do BTG.

No-one can easily walk you through mining.  It's not hard to figure out, but you really need to do your own legwork to get the most out of it.  There's no shortage of info out there.  Good luck.

What, then it isn't like bitcoin? then what the heck did they think, looks like there where some big bitcoin holders that had this idea of bitcoin cash... to rip/scam off some more money... or did they try to make only for transactions to be lower?

I cannot generate a BTG address.
Bitfinex throws an error and Binance doesn't allow the address creation
Is there another way?

I tried to use Coinomi wallet to get this BTG adress, but there is only "Bitcoin test" wallet there. Do you know something about it? Can we use this wallet to start mining ?

I am not sure if this is possible, but you could use the private address of an existing BTC wallet at the moment of the fork. In theory it should work, but I prefer to wait.
I never tried coinomi... I will download this now

Just to clear up, it's under testnet right now, it means that it's just a simulation (https://bitcoingold.org/replay-protection-development/). As someone pointed, any BTC private address prior to the fork will work as BTG wallet, but you will need some conversion (https://bitcoingold.org/bitcoin-gold-daily-dev-update-28-10-2017/)

I saw many miners are using BTC address, but for 3 of miners who found most blocks:

mizMR1rRWmu8vuiBcMVCSHXY3jX36HszRb - not sure which wallet

n3x65RhcX3iSZDQj7rDg7v2G7ZrRN5z2pb - not sure which wallet

t1emzuNbemjqnEhEue74NL3BxsR4cA1ajfP - Zcash transparent address

I'm so confused now.

[DonQuijote]

 Once they get it up and running, yes.
