From: Sunny SANO NIFTYSERVE OR JP> Date: 6 dec 1995 Subject: Ikkyoku no Shogi DATE: 06 DEC 95 Hiroki Kawada wrote on the subject; : means situation in a game is ballanced and one cannot :determine which player takes advantage in the position. It's the first time I hear such an interpretation and further I don't think it correct. [Ikkyoku no Shogi], literally meaning "a game of Shogi" as I wrote before can be interpreted as "an individual game" and/or "an independant game" which consequently means "quite a different kind of game from derivatives of this, now playing game" It's my understanding.
