 That doesn't surprise me. I'm attacking your rook, at least I hope I am.

I “hope” I’m attacking your rook.

That cracked me up. 😆

Btw, not sure if everyone's PC (or phone) is the same, but for me I can hit Ctrl and spin my mousewheel to expand the display if needed.

This game is about to explode.

Oh, you mean it didn’t already?

 Q (-10,-14)

Avatar of captaintugwash

sorry

14... Q (-10,-14)

Avatar of captaintugwash

I was hoping you'd protect with 14. C(0,-1), I'll explain why in a couple of moves. It would've been epic.

Avatar of hitthepin
Ha! I bet you would have obliterated me with some diabolical tactic.
Avatar of hitthepin
Waiting for the board again.
Avatar of hitthepin
This is a pretty epic game already.

Yep, but I had a queen sac coming. That takes it to another level.

Avatar of hitthepin
You were going to sac your queen?!?!?!
Avatar of captaintugwash

 Yeah but you ruined it by not playing the best move.

Avatar of captaintugwash

By the way, I'm staking a claim to "best move in infinite chess" with 13... Q(-10,10).

It hasn't dawned on you yet how good that move is.

Avatar of hitthepin
I’m sure it will eventually...

I guess we can explore what happens after 14. C(0,-1) together after the game is over.

Basically, I have the chancellor pair and bishop pair in exchange for the queen and a hawk.
