FYI - Wanting to be honest, I put a chess note on the game that I needed help with being referred to the "en passant" move. I have offered to resign the game, since technically I did have help with being referred to the only legal move. I thought it the right thing to do. Just wanted to thank those who helped.

Originally posted by turtlexI don't think that's necessary. You weren't in checkmate, it's just one of the limitations of computer chess that you can't lose if you can't think of a legal move (well maybe you could just think about it until you were timed out).
