I was playing someone on the other day and he had a second pawn jump up and miss that square!
(A2 to A4) I believe it was.
Is this allowed?

Originally posted by shavixmirThis probably isn't worth replying to, but please explain that first sentence. By "second pawn" do you mean they moved two seperate pawns two spaces? For example: 1. e4 e5 2. a4?

The answer to that is... READ THE RULES. 19k moves .. God I hope this is a joke.
Originally posted by zebanoI had a similar problem in blitz a couple of weeks ago when a pretty decently-rated (don't remember what) player wouldn't believe that his bishop and wrong colour rook's pawn could only draw. Wasted 5mins moving his king all around the board in an attempt to reach a magical square I think.
Did you see the thread where a 1900 wouldn't accept that 1 pawn up but bishops of opposite colors was a drawn endgame???
In the interest of civility however, I will put the margarita down and head to bed.
Originally posted by shavixmirCheaters! Reminds me of this guy I played. He jumped over a square with his King. Not content with only one obviously illegal maneuver, he picked up a second piece on the same turn - a Rook - and jumped it over his King! I told him, "Hey, chucklehead, everyone knows that only a Knight can jump in chess!", but he was unmoved.

Originally posted by zebanoI missed that one, but I did see a Mary Jane (or is it Mary Ann?)posting where she resigned a drawn rook and pawn ending.

Just because he knew how the pieces moved a week ago doesn't mean he knows how they move now...
Who knows what he's been up to this week?
