From: Nobumitsu Yoda MSD BIGLOBE NE JP> Date: 30 jun 2003 Subject: Result of the ISC monthly match in June Dear Shogi friends, ISC monthly match was played on the 21st of June in "Shogi Club 24" For the first time, we had a "Joseki game" in extra games. The main purpose of this "Joseki game" is to let players know some "Joseki" lines through the actual game. We played games halfway as we followed "Joseki". They were really enjoyable and good study for us too :) I thought that this idea was reasonably successful and we would like to continue this "Joseki game" in the ISC match. The best game of this month is Ultra-Mike VS. Quantum Chaos. This game was very interesting to watch in live condition. The best player of this month is Ultra-Mike. I felt that his skill in "Yagura game" was really brilliant. Congratulations!
