Well I've never done it, but if I were to make up rules on the spot, I'd say you each need 8 articles of clothing. For each pawn you lose, you lose an article of clothing. Pieces just work like normal. Maybe checkmate means you get to ... mate.
The tricky part would be finding a member of the gender of your choice who likes chess enough.

A girl from work wants me to teach her chess (I know I'm not qualified for that, but that's another discussion). I figured I would make it more fun for the both of us.

I've never given chess lessons. After explaining how the pieces move and why the queen is better than a pawn, I wouldn't know how to continue.

Originally posted by UmbrageOfSnowI don't know why I move like I do. It's all instinct. Of course it's easier to correct mistakes than explaining why a certain move is good.
