the thing on f8
do we call it
- a knook, or
- a right
anyhow i guess
spoiler
this is why i don't play chess
yeah maybe the first move is something else that doesn't restrict the next move as much but actually creates something big afterwards

@UnrelatedString knook
Unrelated String
beautiful
lyxal
@UnrelatedString No
First move is g2 to g4
Unrelated String
oh
time to google how en passant works
lyxal

Lest you get the brick
Unrelated String
so if black takes f4 to g3 then white can f8 to b3 but then black can still c1 to c2 and maybe i just don't know the definition of "mate in n" :P
lyxal
Ah, but the king
can't
move to c2

Unrelated String
and it seems like absolutely nothing is accomplished if they don't f4 to g3
@lyxal is this entire thing like five memes stacked on top of each other
lyxal
...maybe
Also, double check is instant mate
Unrelated String
so they also have to take f4 to g3 because of course en passant is forced
that's amazing
lyxal

See? Double check = checkmate
Unrelated String
why of course
also i think this is the first time i've seen a single giant latin letter with furigana on it

@lyxal I must be missing something. Why is Qxe4 not an option?

@DLosc duh, en passant. Google it.

@lyxal I know what en passant is. And just to be sure, I googled it anyway. While taking the pawn with en passant is an option for black, taking the pawn with the queen looks like a much better option.

The joke is that en passant is "forced" because it's a meme
lyxal
then you should know that en passant is forced
DLosc
ಠ_ಠ
@lyxal No, I shouldn't. No such meme pops up when I google en passant.
Aiden Chow
@lyxal can’t tell if this is a joke or not lol
lyxal
@AidenChow (it is)
DLosc

@AidenChow Apparently it's an attempt at one
lyxal
