Deception chess

I'm looking for people who might be interested in playing a game called "deception chess." In this game, a player who doesn't have much experience with chess plays against a medium-strength engine, while getting advice from three stronger players. The twist? Two of the advisors are actually lying to them and trying to make them lose the game, and they don't know which one is really telling the truth. The player has to talk to the advisors over the course of the game and try to figure out who's giving honest advice in order to win the game.

The idea came from an analogy about AI - if someone is doing AI research with the help of a potentially malicious AI, are they going to be able to distinguish good advice from bad advice? There's currently an informal experiment going on to see how often the player is able to win the game. But not very many people have signed up, particularly people who are skilled enough to take on the advisor positions.

If you're interested in being an advisor (or a player), here's the form to sign up. If you have any questions, you can contact Zane at zaneglowfic@gmail.com.

If there is one critical move, should one of the liars give it? there are two liars and one advisors, so any repeat should be wrong. (Like if someone says something twice in two truths and a lie). this causes the player to get confused when two advisors give it, and choose the third. Also, is this done chess.com? Can I be a liar? thx for answering these questions.

Andrew, the liars don't have to give bad advice on every single move, or else they would get caught early on. They can give some good advice at first in order to gain the trust of the player, before betraying them on a more crucial move. And sometimes the three advisors might be recommending three different moves.

You can fill out the form to sign up.

Nvm, everyone; the person who was running this says it's cancelled.
