Oh, and this position IS legal, and here's a possible combination:
No it isn't! As stated, in the position, it is BLACK to move. What was white's last move? There is none.

If the board is facing the normal way with White on the bottom, then it's not illegal as I see it. White's last move was axb7. Black's next move in mate.
Board is facing in the other direction.
sorry james
it s ok?
Yup! Good job.

White's last move was Kh8.
Am I judging which position is the funniest?
Whichever you like the most. Give it a score from 1 to 10.
1st is 1NaturalDisaster bcause it looks cool. 8 out of 10
2nd is tuoheng because it's confusing. 7 out of 10
3rd is RookSacrifice because cunfusing and kind of cool. 5 and 1/2 out of 10
My scores:
1st is 1NaturalDisaster. 9 out of 10.
2nd is LoLChess0. 6.5 out of ten.
3rd is tuoheng. 6 out of ten.
Hey James19James19 (I converted from binary) - fun thread. Could you give us two examples to clarify for those of us interested who could use a hand up the flagpole.
Firsts things first, 1011 converted from binary is actually 11. Now, here's the positions!
Yes , 1 Nf3 e6 2 Ng1 e5
