You're being silly now....straighten up.

(#148) After 1.Nc3 d5 (or anything else) 2.Nb1 , white's second move IS NOT RETRACTING OR UNDOING THE FIRST

....and neither would uncastling be.

You just strengthened my argument even more !! TY jengy....Smile....

....and neither would uncastling be in a chess variant that you free to play somewhere else if you find anybody who likes your idea

Okay. I wanna see empirical evidence that this challenge has shown up in tournament play and was TD rejected. I don't think it has. IOW's, if it hasn't shown up in practice, then when do u expect FIDE to do something about 3.8a ? 

This beatch is back !....I'm sorry but you ppl are pushing my buttons into a good fight going 4ward here. And I can guarantee every1 something....I can beatch better than anyone you've ever read ! (teeth gritting....)

Some knights behave like queens nowadays. And some queens behave like knights. And a pen an have sex with a queen or with a knight. Even bishops can. That's all part of real life. But not of chess. In chess, you can castle but you cannot uncastle. Books can be changed but this one is unlikely to.

Meant to say 'and a pawn can ..'.

Well, you're the one w/ a knight for an avatar. Are you actually a queen ?

"Start w/ the definition of Pawns."

 

You make his point for him... start with the definition of "castle"

I looked it up, and it's not there.

But when I play on chess.com it doesn't let me promote my knights. Unfair!

SIMPLE -> when you castle you can't uncastle it's that simple. it IS illegal, just Google it. 😁😉 hope this helps

"3.8 a. There are two different ways of moving the king..."

Uncastling would be a 3rd way of moving the king.  If you claim it's just a variation on castling then you run into the problem that the king can only jump two squares on it's very first move. You can't uncastle because the king's already moved.
