 By rules agreed, witster lost on time in this game. But since these are all friendly games of Shogi if hirohiigo wants to, you can continue playing.

I'll accept 2 more days for the next move. :)  I've been busy with school so even I haven't been checking up on this game lately, and it's not like we gain anything for a win here.

 Yes, that's right, but putting a time limit helps to retain a certain tempo to the game.

Ok, witster it is your move.

Sorry guys, I don't know what happened. I usually check it as soon as someone posts.

Thanks hirohiigo for the game but do to time constraints, I'm going to have to resign.

Thanks for the game.

Double Wing Attack is a hard opening - I wasn't very confident in how the game was going.  Actually, this has been a problem in many games of mine and the quality of my play has been rapidly deteriorating due to lack of confidence.  I was worried that you would advance too rapidly for the pace I was going.

This is my first correspondance game, and to tell the truth I'm not a big fan of it.  I much prefer a real time game where my full concentration is on the game.  If you ever want a rematch, find me on PlayOK (or Shogi Dojo but I rarely play there).  My name is also hirohiigo on those sites.

 My thanks to both players for participating! :)
