Chess board example image for reference:
Rules:
-You post a what move you want to make, plus the chess piece, plus the color.
ie: White Rook b1 to a3
-If you pick a side with your first move, keep that side until the current game ends.
-Anyone can pick a side to play for it, and move any piece any where they want to(within chess rules).
-To help keep track of play, if you want, you might consider posting a text diagram like so:
00000000
00000000
00000000
00000000
00000000
y0000000
00000000
0x000000
(with x being the start point of piece and y being the end point)
--You may also use these tags to update the piece positions on the board:
K-king
q-queen
b-bishop
r-rook
n-knight
p-pawns
--You DON'T have to play with a diagram! It is there for the more visual players!
-This is MULTIPLAYER chess. Not just two_twig vs ctmjh. Unless no one else is playing.
-When a game ends, all players sides are reset.
-Anyone may start a new game! White always goes first! However, it may be nice if you bold NEW GAME in your post to let -others know.
ie: NEW GAME! White e2 to e4
-If you make a move that takes an enemy piece, do the following:
White knight something something to something something, takes black pawn
Exceptions:
-You can play for another side only if:
--No one has posted by the other side in 24 hours.
--Your know there's someone wanting to play but can't post within the 24 hours
I think that's everything. Remember, this is multiplayer. So anyone can be in a game against anyone else. Let's go!
NEW GAME White B1 to C3
Edit: (oog: you may speak like so when posting out of game. or oog)
