    Default Chess - Game 1

    So a few of us thought it'd be cool to play a game of chess. It was my idea, so I'll start. Whoever responds first gets to be my first opponent. We can do a winner stays, loser gets replaced style thing and challengers can reply in order for a chance to play the winner. That said, here we go!

    Link explaining chess notation: I use algebraic notation.
    http://www.uschess.org/about/forms/KEEPINGSCORE.pdf

    'rilla, someone's likely to die if I enter into a battle in Kitchen Stadium. Can they call it a crime if poisoning someone was an accident?

    Others: I'm really in the mood for a long, thought out coorespondence style game. If I'm going to play games online a' la yahoo!, I'm considering it a waste of time to not be playing poker. To just make a move (or three, or a dozen) a day is completely different.

    - Jeffrey

    P.S. If it really bothers anyone we don't have to do it here. I just thought it'd be kinda cool.

    2. Pd5

    Is that right? (the notation, not the move.)

    Pretty much (assuming you're moving your queen's pawn up two spaces). With pawns you don't have to put the P, but I know what you mean either way. Also, that's still move one for you. Technically, your response would be written "1. ... d5"

    2. g3 (aka Pg3)

    Do I put the ... that you put in too?

    2. ... Nc6

    Can someone set this up on a virtual board somewhere? I've played a bit of chess in my life and I'd like to watch.

    Also, it'd be a cool hack.

    I have a little thingy that I've been using to move the pieces around and I think I can export the boards as image files, I can start posting them.

    The Internet sucks. I spent a long time formatting that. If HTML were turned on I'd insert a <pre>before it...

    Oh well, you might be able to get the idea from what showed up. Next time I make it I'll use underscores instead of spaces.

    No, the white pawn on the far right hand side is in great position for a sneaky little checkraise.

    Best chess site, but has a fee. Quite a bit of benefits. you can also play as a guest, and choose to meet upwith another guest and play

    If anyone is interested, assumnig they are a good poker player, I would trade chess lessons for poker lessons.

    Would it be easier if you used the code tags?

    Code:
    code      tags             maintain     your  spacing.
