in November 18th, 2009 @ 17:02Hmm… I don’t think I’m copying you. That’s weird. Must have been when Mr. Joe took control…

in December 4th, 2009 @ 17:50You know what I just realized? This is, like, the best ever game of chess I’ve played. I’ve only played about 5 or so games come to think of it.

in December 4th, 2009 @ 19:03I’ve never played an actual entire game of chess before, and never offline. I had two other chess games going on here on MB, but both of my opponents left the ‘blog, and the Chatterbox as well.

in December 10th, 2009 @ 16:06How unironic. This seems to be the way all my chess games end. One king(?) and a bunch a pawns in useless places.

in December 10th, 2009 @ 16:37You could resign by hitting the skull-and-crossbones button. That’s what tournament players do when they know they are sure to lose.
Ducky, meanwhile, needs to move some pieces down near the white king.

in December 30th, 2009 @ 14:23That’s because your king is in check, and the queen can’t help.

in December 30th, 2009 @ 18:25Wait, hold up. How is your king in check exactly? I don’t get chess. *shakes head* (See how my knowledge of chess is deeply lacking?)

in December 30th, 2009 @ 19:27Keiffer: Ducky’s king is in check if one of your pieces could move to its square on the next move. In that case, Ducky has to (1) move the king to a square that is not attacked in that way, (2) capture the attacking piece, or (3) shield the square by moving another piece between the king and the attacker. If all of those options are impossible, then the king is in checkmate, and you have won the game.
(The same rules apply to your king, of course.)

in January 29th, 2010 @ 13:09Keiffer — Your 50th move. She hasn’t caught you yet!
(If you’re not going to make another move, you can, and should, hit the skull-and-crossbones button to resign.)

in January 30th, 2010 @ 10:24I think I’ll keep playing, even though I can guarantee that I’ll lose. It makes me extremely happy that I made this far. I thought I’d lose somewhere in between my first to seventh move. I know a dude who got someone into check on his fourth move.
(That would be my dad. I just can’t live up to him.
)

in February 1st, 2010 @ 08:57It’s a draw!
After Black’s 53rd move, White is not in check but has no legal moves. By the rules of the chess, such a position is called a “stalemate” and means the game is drawn. In a tournament, each player would get half a point.
The equals sign on the scoresheet tells the story: Game over. Stalemate!
