1. OshirogoA castle game oshirogo, in relation to high-level go played in Japan during the Edo period, was an official match played by representatives of the four go houses in the castle of the shogun. In its original intention, the two players would play in the shogun's presence. With the passage of the years, this became a formality: the players would replay a game that had already been played, and the shogun would often be represented by an official, rather than attend himself.
