I just played my first game of Seireigi against Jocly, and I beat it easily. It played very poorly, which is to be expected given that this is coded in JavaScript, and Shogi-like games are already more difficult for a computer program to play thanks to drops greatly increasing the moves to consider.

I suppose this is why it plays such one-sided games of Chu Seireigi against itself...

Okay, you could try that.

I know I get caught up in my own projects and don't remember to do the featured variant until the last minute or later. It would help to have more nominations of eligible games or for people to work on adding support for games that are not fully eligible yet. Let's start thinking about what we can do for next month now.

We could make that last part easier, by having some sort of database and a script for adding featured variants. It's only an idea though, so I'll stick to editing the page in WinSCP.
