I guess we will start a event.

Ry,pls say in the game that we decided to start an event.

I vote 6. c4, unless start event already won. If we start an event then reset my vote.

Yeah.Start event already won.Just haven't been moved by Ry.

Ry can either move the move himself or let Martin know that he let one of us to move the move.

Event #37 Queenbuilder

As a move a bishop can move on top of an allied rook with its normal movement. Only 1 bishop can stand on top of 1 rook.

When a bishop is standing on top of a rook, then the rook and bishop can move together like a queen as a move.

If the rook becomes captured while a bishop is standing on top of it, then the bishop will also get captured.

As a move, a bishop can move off the rook with its normal movement. However the rook can not move without also moving the bishop.

A rook can be a part of castling, even if it has a bishop on top of it. The bishop will remain on top of the rook.

Note: A bishop can not move over allied rooks, it must stop on top of the rook.

Note 2: Only bishops can move to allied rooks, rooks can not move to allied bishops.

Example 1:

Whites bishop can not move inside the white rook (since it needs to move like a bishop when doing so).

Example 2:

White plays Bg2 (so now the bishop is on top of the rook).

Now white can either move both the rook and bishop like a queen (like RBa2 or RBa8) or white can move the bishop out of the rook.

Example 3:

White plays Bxb7

Example 4:

White plays 0-0

A rook and a bishop are worth 8 points, and a queen is worth 9 points. The ability to disconnect the bishop probably makes the combo worth 9.25 points. Seems like a no brainer to connect them eventually.  

I think we should leave our fianchettoed bishop on g2 and try to develop naturally and eventually take a couple moves to combine them. 

I vote c4

i agree c4 seems ok

I'll get to this later today… just got my butt kicked on the Daily Puzzle!  

I think b3 should be considered.

I vote 6. c4

I vote 6.c4 as well since it has the most votes.

5 votes for 6.c4 and 1 vote for 6.b3.

So i guess we'll move c4.

What should we move now?

We have both events on the board.
