I think this is pretty cool too. Hopefully they'll manage to finish the game.

Same here. I have one of my boards out and am keeping track of the game.

you should post us pictures or diagrams so we can keep up.

I never learned the spaces like this, so I have no idea where they are moving.

No problem.

And it's white's turn.

Thanks, Ryconna! Saved me some time.

Knight captures pawn

Rycona beat me on Yahoo chess. In my defense, he was fueled by white pride, and wanted to put an end to the Black King, no matter what the cost.

And that cost was like, two pawns. I suck at chess.

Hey. The first game I beat you as black. That was for all the years of slavery and oppression and stuff.

Roots.

That picture I took... I screwed it up. I missed Lava's Queen's Knight to Queen's Bishop 6 (Nb8-c6). I'm also following the game in Chessmaster for SNES, so I'll post screenshots from there as it is easier to read. Here is the current position:

Oops... ignore the hand. The piece under it is a pawn, if you can't tell. I'll be more careful next time.

EDIT:
Lava is down 1 pawn in material. (I know it's obvious now, but I'll keep track on each picture I take as to make things a little things a little clearer, especially down the road.)

Could ya upload that Chessmaster ROM to Use-Bombs, or shoot it to me on AIM? I can't find it on any of the ROM sites I visit.

Whoa, whoa, ryconna. That image fucked me up. I would never have done that had the knight been moved on the picture. I was wondering why one of the most important squares wasn't protected and double checked your screenshot like 5 times to be sure

#edit: if lava will allow, I'd like queen's knight to queen 5 instead, now that I see the REAL board position

I apologize.

I figured that. It seemed odd that you would break the tension so early, not to mention that it was a bad move.
Once lava gives the okay and possible his next move, I'll put up the next shot.

If you guys don't act slow, maybe ya'll get this finished before summer ^^

I'm back now, and yes you can move back your knight, Jeebus.

And on Yahoo.com, I'm called "firestormiii" (I think it's the tenth username I tried).

Posted: Jan 30 2007 06:23 pm

Well I said my replacement move, so it's your turn lava

2011 SNES Champ Joined: Dec 04 2006 Posts: 1929

Queen's pawn to Queen 6

d7-d6

Our moves look alike pretty much (4 of the six we did are identical)

Edit : Rycona, you gave 9 minutes more to Jeebus than to me. That's not fair. But I'll win anyway. "Mate in 397 moves" Cool

Posted: Jan 30 2007 07:50 pm

White's turn.
Material is even.

EDIT (10:00 PM EST): Lava just handed me ass to me three times on Yahoo and I'm trying to figure out how to put it back together again.

I got a 3-0 score against Rycona online.

It made me remember how to use some combinations, so look well before you move, Jeebus.

We're playing on a forum, though, so I might fuck up anyway.

Bishop to king's rook 4.

Don't worry, lava. I'm not really that good anyway so you should have no issue beating me

2011 SNES Champ Joined: Dec 04 2006 Posts: 1929

Queen's bishop to King's knight 4

Fc8-g4

Edit: It's Bc8-g4

Posted: Jan 31 2007 01:50 pm

Material is even.
No pieces have been lost.

FACT: People who wear bars of soap around their necks are likely to fail in their social lives.

Jeebus, post quickly or I'll put my notations in french with no numbers. Example :

Le cavalier sur la huitième case du cavalier roi se rend à la sixième case du fou roi.

king's rook's pawn to king's rook 3.

Thanks, you made me feel rushed Evil

Just wanted to make the thread more recent Very Happy

Bishop on King's knight 4 takes knight on King's bishop 3

White's turn.

- White(Jeebus) is down 3 points in material.
- White(Jeebus) has lost a knight.

Fun Fact: Howie Carr is both an asshole and a hack.
