Longest individual notation?
e7xd8=Q#
This would never be written as pawn moves would never have the number of the starting square in them
e7xd8=Q#

what do you mean?
You can never see, for example, e2e4 because it is impossible for more than one pawn on the E file to be able to move to e4
I had this in an actual game!
12. gxf8=Q#

i think d7xe8=Q#
No, it should be dxe8=Q#, because it's impossible for two pawns in the same file capturing one square.
I tried to find another longer notation, but couldn't. Even so, I'd like to share the possibility of O-O-O+ or O-O-O#. If it was possible to capture while castling this would be longer than 7 chars
I've just learned that there's this ++ notation for a double check. This could be helpful for this endeavor
How about 1000. (a)xb8(N)?? (c)xd8(N)#??
The a pawn takes b8, and promotes into a knight, a blunder, and the same thing for black, except black checkmates on their move, also somehow a blunder, and also the 1000th move of the game. This is in total, counting the spaces, 30 characters long.
it's called a
Double Disambiguated Capture Checkmate:
Very weird.........
