The knights are so small on most chess sets that they have to carry knives instead of swords...

a fork is when a piece directly attacks two or more pieces at the same time
knife is not a chess term

Oh, so placing the knight to check but attempting to capture the turret at the same time is a fork, did i get it?

Yes, assuming by "turrent", you mean "rook".

black to play to kill this group.
Seriously....I recently started playing Go over at OGS....I have to say I absolutely love this game.There's such harmony and beauty in this game,and without the opening theory that dominates chess.There's so much to learn.

Can white run upwards? Because that's how it looks like and if this is the case then the group is pretty much unkillable. Black can capture 4 stones in gote with Q2 but that's small.

I think you are correct.

Great! I think so too! There is a lot of harmony and beauty? What's your username in OGS? I want to challenge you.
Q2 should be point, but that's small.

You are correct...I worded it incorrectly.black to move to kill a few stones (the four stones in the corner).

It has been 20 years since I have played go, but I used to be decent, but I think the whole group can be killed. It will hinge on S8 not being a valid "me". Not sure though...where is our local Go expert?
Finnen, what do you mean by you don't know?
