Ah, one more last minute thing has popped up.

Kitten4U will be Hydraing with Shadoweh as Germany also so they are one political party so Kitten can learn to play this game. Feel free to PM either of them to make your Diplomatic solutions since they will act as one entity. However, only Shadoweh will be responding to you guys PM wise. The only way you can talk to both of them is if you're in an IRC client with them and they tell you whatever.

Kitten4u · « **Reply #32 on:** May 17, 2011, 02:09:02 AM »

Do PM both of us though if you use PMs please. It'd get confusing if we both didn't get them.

Yes actually. In high school I was the top schoolastic girl in my state for two years in a row, and amongst adult women as well, I was third. :V Most people that are into chess in my area know who I am.

That is a cool response!!!!

BRB stalking you over internets

. I am not famous at all like that! But I guess people would reconize me in tournaments perhaps in the North-Eastern Sea Coasts states (I hope anyway). Who knows? I might have played you once already

I wonder if we could play correspondence chess over MotK?

:ohdear:

I think playing over Yahoo or something would be easier tbh. I tried to play a game with Rou where we only gave each other notation, but I got confused and messed up a couple of moves because I use descriptive notation, not algebraic. :V My brain's been on the wonky side, so I dunno if I want to play a super long game, but like 5 minute blitz is always p great.

Doll.S CUBE · « **Reply #41 on:** May 17, 2011, 04:17:44 AM »

Hmm, this could turn out interesting.....

ActionDan · « **Reply #42 on:** May 17, 2011, 04:21:26 AM »

I think I made a yahoo account a long time ago just for that purpose, but I don't remember the username or password. Maybe I'll go make another one. If instead of the algerbraic "e4," do you use the english system? (Like 1. Nc3 would translate to "Queen's Knight 1 to Queen Bishop's 3") I confess I don't remember the english system all that well, but it isn't too hard to get into I think.

Point is, we should totally play a game!

Edit: Also my rating is 1937 USCF, and I'm figuring you are prolly around that range (but if much higher or much lower, rating won't stop me

)

Kitten4u · « **Reply #43 on:** May 17, 2011, 04:24:03 AM »

Nc3 = NQB3 if it was white moving yeah. If it was black it would be NQB6 and that's where the confusion comes in. :V

ActionDan · « **Reply #44 on:** May 17, 2011, 04:27:48 AM »

ah, Ok I can work with that. so guessing e4 = KP2@K4 if white or if black KP7@K5? and is castling still O-O (kingside) and O-O-O (queen side)?

Kitten4u · « **Reply #45 on:** May 17, 2011, 04:32:11 AM »

e4 = P-K4 if it's white's turn. P-K5 if it's black's. Castling notation is the same. Hyphens are optional. I use them when I feel like it.

Schezo · « **Reply #46 on:** May 17, 2011, 04:34:47 AM »

Ok ok, back to forging alliances and all that. :V

ActionDan · « **Reply #47 on:** May 17, 2011, 04:45:08 AM »

Ok

, I'm sorry, it's quite exciting to find a fellow chess player! Anyway I guess I'll talk chess in PMs between our countries.

Yes that means it might go something like this:

Turkey: "GD GERMANY YOU STABBED ME IN THE BACK LIKE DORMIO IN DTB MAFIA!!! also don't you love the caro-kann defense!"

Germany: "HAHAHAHAHAH! Yes, it's fairly solid actually."

PX · « **Reply #48 on:** May 17, 2011, 05:09:34 AM »

Ohohohohoho, I wouldn't mind playing Chess against you people.

Yonowaaru · « **Reply #49 on:** May 17, 2011, 05:23:53 AM »

I really suck at chess, though..

ActionDan · « **Reply #50 on:** May 17, 2011, 01:29:05 PM »

Then it's settled! We fight proxy chess battles to determine even powered fights. No more struck backs, no more worries! Also conquerer PMed me about playing on chess.com. I actually forgot about that site. It's really cool too, you guys can find my handle (ActionDan) there and challenge me

.

I might make a separate thread collecting handles (I think chess.com is the best free chess site out there.. but if anyone knows others feel free to share!).

So, can we send in our movements yet? I'm excited to CRUSH YOU ALL!

Yes please send your movements to me, the game has started so chat it up, and the deadline for the first turn Spring AD 1901 is 19.5 at 6:00PM Central Standard Time (CST).

Is it the hydra or the chess thing that went over you? You can disregard pretty much everything said on page 2 except for like post 31.

Kasu · « **Reply #56 on:** May 17, 2011, 09:59:56 PM »

It was the all of the chess movement-babble that got me.

Not exactly knowledgeable in the naming of my moves.

Schezo · « **Reply #57 on:** May 17, 2011, 10:01:55 PM »

Me either. :V I just pick them up and place them where I want on the board. >_>
