Hey y'all. I'm starting this thread inspired by a tweet 9gag posted a while ago, so I'm going with a LPA Forum version of it. Simple, just post the next move. RULES: 1. CHESS RULES (D'uh ) 2. You can only move pieces from the color in which you made your first move. (Explained below) 3. Remember to update below your board which color moves next, so other players have a reference. I figured it would be a bit more interesting if you can only move the pieces of the color from which you posted your first move. For example, I start with white, and next player's move would be black, so the person who makes the next move can only play with black pieces from there onwards (and of course I can only move white pieces); S/he has to wait for someone to play white before trying again. If the match already started and you want to move, verify below the board in the last post what color moves next so you know which ones are your pieces. Will this work? Let's see. I hope the fact of not having light/dark squares will not give us much problem. Also, the colors in LPA4.0 skin are reversed so I switched the pieces, we'll be using: ♙ = Black ♟= White CURRENT BOARD [TABLE="class: grid, width: 500, align: center"] [TD="align: center"]8[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]♖[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]♔[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]♗[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]♖[/TD] [TD="align: center"]Captured Pieces[/TD] [TD="align: center"]7[/TD] [TD="align: center"]♙[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]♙[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]♙[/TD] [TD="align: center"]Black[/TD] [TD="align: center"]6[/TD] [TD="align: center"] [/TD] [TD="align: center"] [/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"] [/TD] [TD="align: center"] [/TD] [TD="align: center"]♙[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]♝[/TD] [TD="align: center"]5[/TD] [TD="align: center"]♕[/TD] [TD="align: center"]♙[/TD] [TD="align: center"]♙[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"] [/TD] [TD="align: center"]♟[/TD] [TD="align: center"]♛[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]4[/TD] [TD="align: center"] [/TD] [TD="align: center"] [/TD] [TD="align: center"] [/TD] [TD="align: center"]♙[/TD] [TD="align: center"]♟[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]3[/TD] [TD="align: center"] [/TD] [TD="align: center"] [/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]♟[/TD] [TD="align: center"] [/TD] [TD="align: center"]♞[/TD] [TD="align: center"]♟[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]White[/TD] [TD="align: center"]2[/TD] [TD="align: center"]♟[/TD] [TD="align: center"]♟[/TD] [TD="align: center"]♟[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]♟[/TD] [TD="align: center"]♗♘♘♙[/TD] [TD="align: center"]1[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]♞[/TD] [TD="align: center"]♚[/TD] [TD="align: center"]♜[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]♝[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]♜[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [TD="align: center"]A[/TD] [TD="align: center"]B[/TD] [TD="align: center"]C[/TD] [TD="align: center"]D[/TD] [TD="align: center"]E[/TD] [TD="align: center"]F[/TD] [TD="align: center"]G[/TD] [TD="align: center"]H[/TD] [TD="align: center"][/TD] [/TABLE] Any comments and suggestions will be welcome! ----- MATCH LOG #1: [WHITE] Andreina: pawn E2 to E4 [BLACK] minuteforce: pawn D7 to D5 [WHITE] Andreina: pawn D2 to D3 [BLACK] Hawk: pawn C7 to C6 [WHITE] Andreina: knight B1 to C3 [BLACK] Robert: bishop C8 to G4 [WHITE] Andreina: Queen takes bishop G4 [BLACK] Zak: Knight G8 to F6 [WHITE] Andreina: Queen G4 to E2 [BLACK] Dekar: Pawn G7 to G6.

Noted and updated. It is also valid for you to copy the table yourself and post your move. I really like your way to call your move so I will do it myself that way as well.

OFF-TOPIC: It's copying perfectly fine, but table code is always ugly, especially this one. I think that's why minuteforce and All Things opted to avoid using the table.
Stick to having one table in the main post that gets updated and also keep a log in that post of all the moves made. Something like: [BLACK] minuteforce: pawn D5 to D7 [WHITE] Andreina: pawn D2 to D3 [BLACK] Hawk: pawn C7 to C6 [WHITE] Andreina: knight B1 to C3 [BLACK] ...and All Things Linkin Park: bishop C8 to G4 or however you might like to format it.
Got it, let's update this shit. EDIT: But what if I'm not able to update the board OP because I'm AFK, didn't log in or something? 2ND EDIT: My move [WHITE] Andreina: Queen takes bishop G4 What I like about the piece color rule is that the game can evolve into being a "team battle", but so far I'm the only one playing white
Don't give up, just take your time on figuring out the next move, try to think ahead of yourself. Good you joined ---- [WHITE] Andreina: Bishop C1 to F4
LOL yep , I gave it a rest to see if anyone played but not even black made a move lol. [WHITE] Andreina: Castle Queenside (0-0-0)
