I'm blindfolded, so can't see your move?

(anyone could beat me in this game - I like charts, diagrams, illustrations and would not get through life if I had to remember everything).sad.png

we just can't see the pieces.

Something like this, and we don't know where the pieces are. We can only imagine them.

It's amazing that some people have such great short-term memory they can play blindfold chess - even several games at the same time. One story says that grandmaster Richard Reti once played 29 games simultaneously, and won 21, drew six, and lost two. Ironically when he left the event he forgot his suitcase.frustrated.png

Can we just have the start out board so there is no confusion about where the pieces are to start out?

I'll play.

Here's the rules for (bulldog with witch), and here is the starting board:

But I'm not moding this game, and if there's any disputes I don't promise to recreate the board to resolve problems.

Also, you guys should declare this game as unrated, unless you are serious and want it as part of your ELO score.😃

An example of the builder is (here). I also played gyrados once (and lost) but I can't find that thread anymore.frustrated.png
 
The game can still be played, but unfortunately I don't have time to play or mod more games right now. Maybe later.happy.png

gyrados didn't even say he will play. If he wants, I'll mod a game after I finish at least one game (and not replacing with a mandatory tournament game).happy.png
