Chess on an Infinite Plane (HorribleTomato - captaintugwash)

idk what happened while I slept, who messed the move numbers up? Us or vick? (oh that was me, sorry)

Vick, see post #308 (and read it all, not just the move)

I'm not going to enforce this rule on him after he misread my move.

Please see post #308, that was my last move, and I'm happy for tomato to move whatever he wants from there. I know what he wants to do, but I'm waiting until vick is on the same page.

If not I WILL check, that's fine, but if takeback I will play CxC which I think is Tug wants

I haven't analysed CxC and don't intend to until the move is made.

you mean you sacked a Chancellor without any analysis!?

I analysed QxC and forgot to look at CxC.  I don't want to look at it yet in case it's terrible.

Hence me waiting for the board

There's a difference between poor analysis and messing up coordinates. I don't want to win because you thought I went there instead of here, I want to win because you couldn't force a draw.

Sorry, but I'm still confused. After the last posted diagram (#306) the very next move had some typos. It was:

49.Cx(10,8)+

It's a legel move, but it is neither a capture, nor a check (and it's a hung piece).

So I corrected it as:
49.Cx(11,8)+

Was my correction at least correct?

Then if you guys already know and agree what was intended, then can someone just post the move summary for me? Here is the diagram again after White's move 49. Is this where we are?

49.Cx(11,8)+

Yes.

Yeah then post #308 I played 49... K(8,9) though I noted it as move 50, and then I edited the post to say anything past there is wrong because tomato though I played K(8,10).

I'm now expecting tomato to play 50. Cx(11,9)+, but it's as yet unconfirmed.

My move 49... K(8,9) is confirmed.

Let's pick it up from here tomato. Thanks vick, and sorry for the mess.

I've confused myself. Well, I'll play Q(8,23) and I think this move deserves a

After all that you're not even gonna take the chancellor and you're just gonna make the move you played in the first place?

Hi five.

On another note, I might be busy today looking for my copy of A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking. I'm not joking. I can't find it, and it's selling for silly money because he finally died. I'm not usually one to jump on these bandwagons, but it could be worth around $1k.

I just analysed the position deeper

Ok thanks again vick, for you clarity (from your last image)...

49... K(8,9)

50. Q(8,23)+ H(8,11)

That's nice. I guess you saw that blocking with the guard was losing for me.

Yay! we made it to move 50 (this time with the position understood by both players and me).😄

49.Cx(11,8)+...K(8,9)

Fifty!

50.Q(8,23)...H(8,11)

Wow I spot material!!
 I'd offer a draw, but that would be bad etiquette.
