3070. You think every time a pawn moves past another, you can take en passant.
3071. You think bishops are called 'priests' (true story).
3072. You try to capture all the pieces your knight jumps over.
3073. You always take your rooks out first, because they're so powerful.
3074. You play chess like Reepicheep from The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (if you know what I'm talking about.)
