You changed your face! ;)

You noticed! Do you like my new makeup? ;)

P-7d

I do, though I think it hides your natural features a bit too much. ;)

Shucks Ric, you're making me blush ;)

I think that was a mistake, my friend.

Can you do me a favor and PM me the 1d shogi setup we decided was best?

 I don't like the sound of that, especially since I can't see why....

Also, PM on the way.

Well, I may be wrong. You always have a knack for getting out of tight squeezes. Or I may even be misjudging my advantage. We shall see.

Thanks for the PM :)

Well, I think you're right. It would have been better if this had happened a couple moves later, but I'll see how it goes. My chances really depend on what you do with the move after your next one (unless you do something unexpected right away).

Okay, I'm going to shake things up, and hope for a favorable outcome.

I thought I'd posted my move, but I guess I didn't.  Sorry to keep you waiting.

Now I finally don't have to worry about that drop. I forgot that you could so easily threaten my bishop with the next move, though. I should have moved my other gold general forward.
