Our Vote Chess: Best Moves, Helpful Players, and Fails

So I thought I'd do a forum for one of our previous vote chess games, one of the few so far that have been played out until checkmate. I'm looking at who voted for what moves, which moves were the best, and who had the great ideas. 

Here is the game. I'm not putting the comments inside the game, it would be too much.

Also, sometimes I will say whose idea the moves are, when in reality everyone was in agreement right from the get-go, I just posted who mentioned it first

1. We had one vote for c6 and one vote for e6, and c6 was played happy.png I think c6 was mohotma's idea

2. Flying_Fox_1's idea was d5. All votes were for d5(6 votes)

3. We all wanted to take back the pawn this move, all votes were for taking back with the c pawn

4. Flying_Fox_1 mentioned it first, all votes were for this

5. Bf5 and Nf6 had equal amount of votes, Nf6 was NubbyCheeseking's idea

6. Bf5 was played this time, which was Lonteon's idea last move and still was this move as well

7. Qb6 was my idea happy.png, all votes were for Qb6

8. Lonteon's suggestion, all votes were for e6 except for one

9. Well duh wink.png

10. Alekhinekrish's suggestion. Everyone voted for it. 

11. Nd7 was Lonteon's idea, all votes except for one were for it. It was a lengthier conversation, involving thoughts about Ne4, but in the end we had all decided on Nd7

12. We had all already discussed this move previously, it wasn't necessarily one person's idea

13. Another lengthy discussion, ending in the decision to play h6, originally Lonteon's suggestion

14. The obvious move(Lonteon was the first to comment about it)

15. Lonteon's suggestion of Kh7 had all votes except for one

16. PawnSt4r jumped up and shouted it out. All people in the discussion agreed to the move

17. Lonteon re-suggested the move, we had already discussed it the previous move

18. Flying_Fox_1 stating the idea, everyone agreed it was a solid move

19. While first thinking Rg8 before Be4+, Flying_Fox_1 was the first to say Be4+ was the best move now. Good discussion on mating patterns this move. 

20. Everyone knew this was the best move, mainly discussion whether Bc5+ or Rg8 was the best move for next move

21. CollinRobert12 was the first to think this was best, everyone was immediately in agreement

22. Whereas Lonteon and I had thought Bc5+ was best, PawnSt4r was the one to find the faster mate

23. duh

24. GG to them

Now I'm going to the computer analysis to see if we made any sad fails....

Wow guys!! The worst we had was a single inaccuracy, on move 6 Bf5 wasn't the best move, it was actually e6! But I'm proud of us! Go team!

I found a game that looked like we played it pretty thoroughly. We don't have many(if any other) games that have been played through to resignation due to a seriously bad position or checkmate. 

This one wasn't as interesting of a game because of that reason, but hopefully there will be some more fun ones in the future! Also, if you ever want to do something like this with one of our vote chess games, feel free! I might try to do one if we finish one off that was played through pretty well. 

 

Also, I want to shout out @Lonteon! for finding and letting us know about so many of the good moves that we played! Keep it up!

his old name was um something else. He used to be either an admin or coordinator, his name was something about being really bad or something. Maybe I can remember....

He had a stick figure or something for his profile picture for a while
