    c) If possible, you somehow "castle" without actually castling. For instance, moving your king, moving your rook, moving your king again, etc etc until they get to the right spots. If you do this, ask your opponent to make reversible moves, like randomly move a knight back and forth till you get your rook and your king where they should be. < If you want to do this, your opponent MUST agree. No refusals, sorry.


    This is an impossible maneuver in most circumstances, but I admire the creativity.  Grin

    Yep Sprout. yes

    OKAY EVERYBODY LISTEN UP! Thanks to Asbie the Awful and Kodanshi the Kooky, draws are now allowed. Those dumboheads have undermined my authority with their blatant disregard for rules.

    From now on, I'll be morally supporting whoever is playing against either one of them. They both suck. Tongue

    I think that in order to be consistent she'd have to back the draw.  Cheesy

    Ummm...I'm supposed to be doing this but it's kinda hard when:

    1. People aren't playing rounds
    2. Sprout left :( (we miss you buddy!!!)

    So. Uh...yeah, whoever didn't have Sprout, PLAY THIS ROUND!

    Not to name names, but KODANSHI AND CLUBS PLAY YOUR DARN GAME ALREADY! grin12

    And I'll figure out what to do about the games ppl played against Sprout...or, one of you can just tell me? grin12 Like you guys have always done (not that I'm not supremely powerful or anything, but even Grandmistress Chepea the Great needs help sometimes).

    One of those stupid 1–2 minutes per move matches. I don’t usually indulge in those, since I think it makes for bad chess, but my correspondence games were proving a little too slow. Haven’t heard from Clubs in a while. If he died in a gang fight do I get to win my match with him by default?
