Just to let off some steam that I created, I wanna play a game of chess. Chess calms me down a lot. Grin

I challenge one of you people to a game of chess [no newbies please].

You might need your chess set [if you have any] because we'll be using coordinates for the game.

Since the coordinates seem to be oriented with the White pieces, this is how it goes.

I get White!!! Grin

The Ranks will have the letters [A-H from left to right] while the Files will have the numbers [1-8 from white side to black side].

The coordinates will be like this: Pawn A2 > A4

I'll start since I have the white pieces. Grin

Pawn D2 > D4

The next person to make his move will be my challenger.

Come on.

Are you people afraid to challenge me in a game of chess? Come now, I'm not that good. Grin

My cousin always plays a game of chess with me and I always lose. Roll Eyes Tongue

Look in the bright side, at least there no timers involved. Grin

You waited over a hour for your first reply! So even if you might be able to win a game in  chess in as little as 6 moves (?)(I think that is the minimum amount?) Your looking at a possible game that will take 6hrs?
A year! Must have been one hell of a battle!! or "no timer" Smiley

Hell in the US it takes a week to get a letter across town!! Smiley
But that explains the year long game, that is pretty cool and a interesting way to keep in touch!!

fools mate in 4 moves:
Pawn   E2-E3
Queen D1-H5
Bishop F1-C4
Bishop C4-F7

Basically you get your Bishop infront and one to the right of the dark King with your Queen guarding the Bishop. The only piece that can take the Bishop is the King but doing so puts the King in check with the Queen.

I've managed this once successfully, then noone wanted to play me  Cry.
