 I'm glad you posted the link because there's already a discrepancy. You have my pawn at 2f, but I called 7f. Other than that we're on the same page.

Oopsy.  Can't even read.  I'll fix it.  Sorry.

No prob, but it would have been a bother if it took too long to catch.

Well, it's still a bit of a pain, since I would have switched the placement of my gold and silver generals, but I made the error, and it's not too big a deal.  I'll work with it.

Oh, well, it could have been worse.

Let's try a strategy I've never tried before.

Those links are being helpful this game. I moved the wrong gold general in turn ten.

I thought you might.  Technically only one gold general could have gone to that square, so I did not specify, but it occurred to me that you might forget that the other might not be able to make that backward diagonal step.

 I think you called the G-5b instead of G-5a, because I'm using the BCM Games Shogi software, which doesn't allow me to make illegal moves. But it doesn't matter, since my board now matches yours.

Well doggonit, I don't know why I keep make silly errors like that, but I'm glad I'm showing the links too so you know what I meant to do.  Again, I apologize.

I clearly am, and I apologize.  I must be tired.  Part of the problem is that when I copied the link, I'd forgotten to export to the new setup, so while on my computer it looked different, the URL remained in an old position.  The second problem is that I again wrote the wrong space for my knight.  I am often in a hurry, and I am also tired, so I guess I'm just not looking well.  For the third, and hopefully last time for a while, sorry about that.

What I meant was N-3c

JEDIT: Better include a link

LOL, no problem. :)
