From: Leonard Hirsch yahoo com> Date: 17 oct 2003 Subject: Re: Time limit for the shogi e-mail ladder Mr van Velzen, I would like to end the game played with Mr. Hammond. I have not heard from him in several months. Before that moves were typically a week apart up to a month apart. I did it to him once or twice, but that was only after I had lost interest after having to wait so long. Whatever results you decide for this match, I would like to end it. Thank you, Leonard Hirsch --- Hans van Velzen wanadoo nl> wrote: > Dear fellow shogi players. > > I would like to remind all of you who are playing on > the shogi email > ladder of the time limit that is to be applied. for > each match it stands > that 10 moves have to be made in 30 days.
