so, favorite icecream flavor, anyone? ? ? 😉

Are you going for the World Record for number of feet in the mouth at the same time ?

No one cares - we're all patzers anyway so get over it.

RB, you wouldn't know a cheater if he forked all your pieces in a single move.

Edit: construction challenge. Make a position where no enemy pieces are attacked, and the side to move can make a move that attacks all 16 [or as many as possible].

Maybe add a Q to a1 and put K on a2.

{No white pieces attacked} Nc6+ { 10 pieces attacked. This is probably the maximum.}

That can't be the maximum. There is another dark square diagonal that is not being utilized.

It is already under attack from the Knight...

Construct a position where with one move 6 pieces are attacked.
(There being none attacked before the move)




... without using a knight!

This is also 6, of which one pawn twice! [pgn]

The pawn on e5 is the seventh on the board, so is not included in my count.
