I have found out a different 4 move checkmate, KP up 2, bishop to B5, Queen to F3, queen checkmate. It's less obvious

Huh?

that is a very obvious mate, and i used it many times, and i've only played for about 6 months, not very new but still good

yes it is. great discovery. now go and call Frederik Friedel!!

It's funny when I stand around with people and they start talking about chess. Then they say "ooh man. I remember when someone showed me the killer 4 move checkmate. I was first in the state, but I can't remember the moves now."

I say "You were first place in your state and you don't know the 4 move mate?"

"You doooo?"

"Yes, you idiot."

Huh? is right

who moves their King twice in the first 3 moves?

someone who is mated in 4 apparently!

but is this referring to the Scholar's Mate? I'm lost apparently

Well, I think Joe Banana versus Nybble might be an interesting encounter . . .
