elo people of the internet
today we will play a civilized game of chess

if you don't know the rules of chess, i'm not explaining the rules so go look it up

the thread will go like this, the first reply of the thread starts the game as the first member of the red team. the next reply will be from a member of the blue team, etc. this will keep alternating back and forth until there is a winner of the game.

castling, en passant and upgrading pawns are allowed

p = pawn
r = rook
k = knight
b = bishop
q = queen
K = king
- = empty space

now there's the post formatting, the most complex part of all of this. a post will look like this

[put team here, whether it be red team or blue team]

[use classic notation, for example red's leftmost pawn moving one space will be "a2a3". please search up chess notation if you are not familiar with this as well]

[below here is the current state of the board after the move above is made]

[the taken pieces of red and blue will be here]

The misalignment caused by differences in character widths, along with other aspects of this format, is annoying, so I'm going to propose an alternative format that uses the code tags to ensure equal character widths. Red's pieces shall be capital, and blue's pieces shall be lowercase.

Code: Select all

Red's perspective:

Yes,you are true. It is not misterious anymore - it is indeed called Burvam and is from a small village in the west Mexico.

It turns out that there are Unicode characters for chess pieces. These could be easier to understand.

Edit: Actually, equal-width characters apparently don't hold for obscure Unicode characters, so I guess that this idea won't work.



Another edit: I think that I managed to align the grid.

Also O-O though I'm on mobile now and editing text is hard

Or is it a blunder

Also O-O is a king move, so "e1g1, h1f1" is wrong

That's why Pd4 and pe5 are missing and Nf3 is on d4 instead.
