Tyrannus,I am reversing myself re: this mistake.
I have analyzed it, and You asked me whether I think the nomenclatures matched. I just re read it and I did say yes. I was not looking carefully. So you went under the presumption that they did match,
And therefore this game is still on. My bad for not being careful enough. So let’s continue, with your agreement.
Next time I will be more careful.
Later. .
@Obe, I did all the moves of the game so that I could make a move (under the impression, as per your first post, that anybody could make a move), but I decided not to after seeing your massive blunder (and how bizarre it was to see Tyrannus not take advantage of it for so many moves). It wasn’t really a ‘blunder’ per se, as you thought you had made a different move but mistakenly just agreed with Tyrannus that you moved pawn b2 to b3…but you really should pay more attention…
Anyway, I’ll be happy to join in and contribute moves to the game (if that’s still what we’re doing) as soon as a new game is begun - one not started with a massive misunderstanding about what move was taken. Obe, try to just use as simple notation as possible, as that is what Tyrannus is doing. “P>QB3” takes more mental effort to interpret, and as we’ve seen, is easier to misinterpret than “pawn f2 > f3”. Best to reference the piece, the starting position and the ending position I think (or simply the starting and ending position for brevity), for least possibility of confusion.
I recommend the game just be quit on the spot because of the confusion. Idk why you said ‘yes’, obe, when he asked you if you meant to move pawn from b2 to b3, but the fact that you said yes, and the game carried on, has made the game unfun and unbalanced. Start afresh, using clearer move notation, and for fuck’s sake don’t agree to moves you didn’t mean to make.
Flannel. Your offer is conditionally accepted with gratitude. I have no excuses, but the condition is for me to run through the game again. Why? I do not know if, I would be really accepting another gambit in addition to the already existing blunder.
If in fact by accepting Tyrannus’ interpretation based on my move, and it turned out, I took his interpretative position using his nomenclature, and proceeded to play with that unintended position, does that justify my using that as a reason to abandon the game?
That is a difficult question, putting me squarely in a position, where I seemed to agree, without knowing what I was agreeing with. But even if, I did that, would the justification stand?
If in fact my subsequent moves reflected an unwitting procession of moves based on ty’s nomenclature, then saw that as an opportunity to get out from under an unsuccessful appearing game, it would be technically right for using such justification, but morally dubious.
I may have not even brought the issue up, had the game proceeded better. However opening up that bishop file was a blunder, but perhaps a blunder that may have nothing to do with the misunderstanding about nomenclature.
It was late at nigh, I was tired, and failed to evaluate the progression of moves, and hence I do not really know whether I proceeded on what account.
Therefore, until I get home from work tonight, I will be unable to see, really what happened. But thank you for your intercession , and look forward to your help, whatever goes down. Hoping ty and I can see eye to eye in this matter, and be able to resolve it.
Thanks again.
Let the games begin:
Black queen d7-f5
So far: white pawn b2-b3, black pawn g7-g6, white knight g1-f3, black pawn b7-b6, white knight b1-a3, black bishop f8-g7,white pawn d2-d3, black bishop c8-b7, white bishop c1-f4, black pawn d7-d6, white queen d1-d2, black queen d8-d7, white pawn e2-e3, black bishop g7- a1, white pawn c2-c3, black horse b8-c6, white queen d2-c1, black bishop a1-c3- check, white queen c1-c3, black pawn f7-f6, white horse f3-g5, black queen d7-f5
G5~f7 check
That’s not check. You do realize that, right?
If you would see my chess set, which is of glass,the white pieces and the board do not. Differ much from the black. But I could have swore that yiur king was on e1. And I moved the night to f7 right?
Knight is at f7, and your king is at ...no. U are right. What is going on is I have a glass set and I put your ...wait..isn't yoiur king on d1?
If I set white and black pieces on the wrong color(white is transparent ,and black is white) I will send You a picture if I can take one in a minute).
No I am certain the set up is all right irrespective of all. This may be a gambit game, more like bluff. But if so, we should be playing Texas hold’em. But seriously, as a side, pls look at my comments on tyrannus in the other forum.
You might have moved to the wrong place, but be as that may be this is still a game of chess.
I am going to assume you have recently come to the conclusion that you have misplaced your horse. Yes?
The move nonetheless must still stand as being a part of your turn.
No I don't believe I placed my horse on the wrong square, what makes You think so?
And incidentally, where is your king standing now?
My king is on e8.
This is where we are at: white pawn b2-b3, black pawn g7-g6, white knight g1-f3, black pawn b7-b6, white knight b1-a3, black bishop f8-g7,white pawn d2-d3, black bishop c8-b7, white bishop c1-f4, black pawn d7-d6, white queen d1-d2, black queen d8-d7, white pawn e2-e3, black bishop g7- a1, white pawn c2-c3, black horse b8-c6, white queen d2-c1, black bishop a1-c3- check, white queen c1-c3, black pawn f7-f6, white horse f3-g5, black queen d7-f5, white horse G5~f7
Sorry that’s where Yoiur Queen was and You have not moved Your king at all.
Go through the notations and check for yourself.
I don’t need to. Have you moved your king? I don’t think so, I will double check and get back to you.
Double check. I have it where the white pieces are at the bottom of my screen and where the black side is at the top.
Just checked. Your king has not been moved, and your queen is on it’s right color. I told you even if you win or loose, it doesen’t matter. The mainthing is committment and initiativve. And of course bluff inthe guise of jest. If so I accept it. But I cannot will it without Your power. I am powerless at this point to see through You. Remeber I am transparent(white) and you are white (black) sent you a photo did you see it?
Where is it exactly you think my king and queen are?
Nevertheless, remeber: if you win, you loose. The last will be first and the first shall be last. And if I will loose I will still win. That’s the way love is baby, that’s the way love is. Pretend roles are reversed and I am the joker. And you are superbatman.
It really doesn’t matter which side you are. That’s. Why I am Janus.
