The book containing 291 pages was released on April 25. The reason
why
English translation emerged so early is that Umeda Mochio, the
author,
declared to allow the book to be freely translated into any languages
to be
published anywhere on the Net in the form of web content on his blog
entry
of April 20, 5 days before the release. And an open source style
project of translation of it has been kicked by shotayakushiji since
April 29 and then
15 Japanese people including myself came together to generate the
tentative version linked above.

I'm sure this will instantly be one of most interesting reading
materials in
English about shogi.

You can not only read the contents but also participate in brushing up
the translation since the translation is still tentative and the
project is
proceeding in an Open Source style. In order to take part in the
project,
having a PBworks account will be required. And you can kick the
translation project of it into other languages than English and
French.

mahavrilla: Please try the links in the page of my blog at http://shogi.typepad.jp/eweblog/2005/11/basic_shogi_inf_1.html

I think shogi FESA and USSF organizations use the rating system which is equivalent to western chess. Please refer to http://www.shogi.net/fesa/rating.intro

A professional players' association exists in Japan. They don't use rating system. They use Dan grading system.

Emne: Re: Gyokushō
ニコ: There have been arguements whether Gyokusho(玉将) or (王将) is correct at least since 17th century.

In diagrams in the books and magazines published by Nihon Shogi Renmei(Japan Shogi Association), 'Gyoku'(玉) is used for both colors.

On the other hand, if you buy a set of shogi pieces, there usually are one Gyokusho and one Ohsho as the Kings in it. It is a practice that a higher rated player uses the Ohsho and a lower rated player uses the Gyokusho in that case.

I think it will be no problem for Brainking to use two Gyokusho for both Kings.

Emne: Color in a handicap game
In Japan, we don't use the technical terms like Sente and Gote in a handicap game. Instead, we use Uwate(more skillful player) for a handicap giver and Shitate(less skillful player) for a handicap taker. And, Uwate, a handicap giver, always moves first in handicap games.

The color of Uwate is White and that of Shitate is Black. Why? I think this is due to the conveneience of printing industry in Japan. Looking at shogi books in Japan, the lower side of a diagram of a handicap shogi position is always Shitate(black). The player who needs to read such book is definitely novices/begenners and it is easier to understand the position if the lower side of the diagram is Shitate(Black) rather than Uwate(White). I think this is true for Igo handicap games. White(a handicap giver) drops first there.

15. April 2006, 11:05:41

Emne: The colors of players
Together with Igo release in Brainking(http://brainking.com/en/News), the colors of players has switched each other in Shogi, i.e. Black for Sente(the first mover) and White for Gote(the second mover). They used to be reversed here.

I would like to say thank you to Fencer for doing a good job as always. And I hope the handicapped game feature will be added to shogi shortly.

YuryShpilev:
Although I cannot check out the rules in all the ama tournaments in Japan because of so many tournaments, it is said that 27 point rule is popular in many ama tournaments.

I believe the rules except for 24 point rule have been created in order to solve the problem that no time exist for re-match after Jishgi in ama tournaments.(In Japan, the number of participants in the major amature tournaments are often much larger and the preliminary tournament term is usually one day, not using 2 days of full weekends, which is different from most Western countries).

ughaibu:
In some amateur tournaments, 27 points rule is applied. If both sides have 27 points, then White(Gote) will win in that rule.

In addition, Senzaki 8 dan wrote a proposal that the player who moves his King to the opponent's original position(means 5a or 5i) first should win the game when both Kings entered into the promtional zones. This rule is applied in the Iruma Shogi Center in Saitama prefecture.

Then you can see 9 page of the list of started games with players' nicknames.
