Can anyone please help me and identify what the final numbers are for Player 1 and Player 2 based on the image below? I have been sent this image but i dont play chess and am curious as to what it all means! I thought i would post a message here as i know someone may be able to help me out. Thanks in advance!

2 bishops of the same color are illegal, as is 3 rooks and queens

? Unusual, certainly... illegal, no.

I know there are illegal moves in this endgame. What i really wanted to know were the final calculations for Player 1 and Player 2 based on the image. The game is not in fact an actual game.

I still don't know what the question is.

If you want to know if those moves could be made from that position, then yes, they could.

There are 8 calculations to be made for both Player 1 and Player 2 based on the endgames shown in the picture. Each of the 8 calculations should result in a single digit answer. As i dont play chess and dont know the fundamentals of the game, i was wondering if anyone knows what to do?

AndyClifton

Nope, I'm afraid it's still all buzzes and whistles to me.

I think I understand, you want us or someone to decipher what happens from the first position to the next position with help from the text since you dont understand the meaning of the text itself.

I'll start by listing the signs and their individual meanings:

Q = Queen

B = Bishop

P = Pawn

N = Knight

R = Rook

X = Takes/attacks

++ = Checkmate

 

Taken above (plus some of my own conclusions) into consideration, the game unfolded like following, I've also simplified it by stating from where the piece move so it will be easier for you to understand.

    WHITE      BLACK

1. Qd1xd3     Be7xd6

2. f4xg5        Bd7xg4

3. Na5xb2     Bg4xc8

4. Ra1xc1     Rc7xc1

5. Ra4xa7     Bd6xb4

6. a3xb4         Bc8xb7

7. Bh5xg6      Rd8xd3

8. Re1xe8 ++ (checkmate)

 

EDIT: I hope that this isn't a problem you created for someone to solve, and in fact do not need any help deciphering its cryptic meaning. If so, you have just tricked my good will and will never be forgiven.

The final numbers are:

Player 1: 1

Player 2: 0.

Yes it's 1-0 because White wins. ++ or # is a symbol used for checkmate. But # is more popular than the other one. :D

nice scottrf, that was a bit easier than my wall of text :p

Thanks very much rallYsallaD, Scottrf and nyLsel for your help! Exactly what i wanted to know, just didnt know how to explain it. As im not a chess player, i posted this here in this forum as im sure someone would know what it all meant. Not creating a puzzle for someone else to solve at all, simply just wanted to know what it all meant and how to go about working it out. Cheers!

It's probably the strangest set of moves I've seen.

AndyClifton

wow

newbie11111

Right, if you thought the last one was weird, heres another one for you to look at! This one seems to be abit harder than the last one and ive got no tips or pointers as to what to do. Im sure someone here may have an idea or know what to do.. Yes, its probably some of the strangest moves or analysis you've looked at but any info would be much appreciated!!

Now you are cryptic again, what do you mean by "one"? I cannot see how all those positions are connected. In addition, it's impossible for a chessplayer, at any level, to figure out a non logical set of moves.

At a quick glance: A, B, C and E can(after some very unlogical move order) derive from position D, F and G. Position H can only transform into position C. Further details are just pure speculation. G is checkmate in two if white moves first: 1. Bxd5 Kxf2 2. c6 ++

I don't know why I am answering your weird threads :s
