Shogi House blog

 Hey shogi fans,

It occurred to me that a blog is probably a really ideal way to get a lot of my shogi ranting done in a way that doesn't really require any sort of prep time or audio/video editing.  I've done a couple of blogs in the past, but I think I was too formal with them.  So instead of having any sort of aim or goal or anything, think of this as just a place where an aging shogi player can yell about the game she loves.

If you don't know who I am - my name is riko, formerly known as hirohiigo.  If you know me from back then and are confused about me calling myself a she, just don't worry about it.  Back in 2009 I got really angry at a game of chess after accidentally stalemating my friend and quit the game forever, only to be wooed over by shogi because of how almost impossible it is to draw in this game.  Around 2010 I made the 81-Square Universe, an old (and now dead and gone) shogi forum and began a really spottily-updated history of shogi content creation.

My current, main shogi presence can be felt on the Shogi Harbour discord and the Shogi House youtube channel, for which this blog is named.  

That's pretty much all the introduction I feel like giving, as other bits of my story could probably be better used for milking content other, more relevant blog posts.
