"How long is a chess game ?"

"Chess is boring"

"You always have to be seeing like, 7 moves ahead, right?"

^^^ from personal experience

Avatar of camberfoil

I can see maybe 5 or 6 moves ahead, but 7 is too many. Speaking of which, anyone tried to fold a rectangle more than 7 times? I have done 8 :D

Avatar of colinsaul

They tried to see if they could do more than 7 folds on Mythbusters. They folded a huge piece of very thin paper. The result should be somewhere in cyberspace.

"Does your set come with spare parts?"

"If that piece is called the knight, then why isn't there a knight riding the horse?"

Avatar of Viviplex

"If they call that piece the 'rook' then why don't they call that move 'rooking?'"

- Wait... you can castle on both sides?

-Why don't you move your queen out first? its the best piece.

-Why don't you just move all your pawns forward two spots every time?

People always ask me if I'm good. They get shocked when I say "not really." I have to explain how good people can get and that I'm average

@ Dragon: Thank you. I thought about raindeer antlers and a Rudolf nose. But, I prefer the hat.

I'm gone for a week or so and I come back to this stuff.

This is why I hate/love this forum.
