in March 20th, 2010 @ 14:40Yup. Ohhh I see what I did wrong….
If I moved my bishop one more space to the left it would’ve worked and have been a checkmate. Cake.

in March 22nd, 2010 @ 17:50I just figured out why I’m failing at this chess game. I keep thinking I’m white, not black, and I click all the white pieces and don’t know why I can’t move them, then I accidentally hit one of the black ones and move it.
I shall attempt, and most likely fail, at doing a better job at this.

By clicking on the button with the two curvy arrows, you can see the board from Black’s point of view.
(I wouldn’t say you’re failing at the game, by the way. You have White’s queen.)

in March 25th, 2010 @ 16:16I’ll try clicking the two curvy arrows, because I just did it again. Luckily I didn’t accidentally move my piece.

Robert Coontz (Administrator)
in May 1st, 2010 @ 16:12That’s right. Stalemate occurs when a player’s king is not in check but has no legal moves. Checkmate occurs when the king is in check and has no way out of it. In this case, Black’s king is in check but can get out of it. So: check but not checkmate, and certainly not stalemate.
(17. Bb4 was not White’s best move.)

in May 2nd, 2010 @ 08:2017.2) Ahh. Not the right move.
hmm.
*rewinds board a bit*
Nf5? No/probably not, the black knight would just capture it…
Ne4? hmm.
I don’t think that I would move the other bishop (c4). Maybe I could’ve captured the rook though. Then the pawn would take my bishop.
I could’ve messed with the pawns, but I’m not sure that would’ve been right.
*ponder*
I think it has something to do with the knight at d4?Anyways.

in May 4th, 2010 @ 16:5019) Ne4….Which would probably make the king move to c5 (?) and then I would move my pawn up 2 spaces, which would cause the king to eat it, and then my bishop would eat the king?
Haha. The chessboard must be a very bloody place, with all the sliding around. hopping, and consuming.

in May 4th, 2010 @ 17:39peary: We were talking about your 17th move. The black king couldn’t have moved to c5, because your knight at e4 would have been attacking that square, too.
