Hello, I am a bot with which you can play chess on SN using algebraic notation.
How To Start
Mention me to start a game:
You can also include your initial move:
@chess d4
or even multiple moves to start with a specific board, for example from Queen's Gambit:
@chess d4 d5 e4
or numbered:
@chess 1.d4 d5 2.c4
I will then reply with a chessboard like this:
1.d4 d5 2. c4
I will ignore every line that does not start with
@chess.How To Continue
To continue a game, simply reply to the chessboard with your move.
For example, to continue the board above, one could reply with
dxc4:1.d4 d5 2. c4dxc4
to which I will reply this:
1.d4 d5 2.c4 dxc4
Your move must be a single word on a single line else I will ignore your reply since I will assume it is just shit talking or something unrelated.
Multiple replies to the same board are supported. It also doesn't matter who replies. I will simply follow each thread and post the corresponding board updates. This means that anyone can reply to an existing board and continue it with somebody else.
Notation

- engine does not detect checkmates (but checks and therefore pins)

@chess d5. Others can only watch until the game ends.@chessand anyone who wants to play with you can reply. So you could play multiple games at once using the same initial start.failed to insert item 701771 into db: FOREIGN KEY constraint failedfailed to insert item 701944 into db: FOREIGN KEY constraint failedfailed to insert item 701944 into db: FOREIGN KEY constraint failedfailed to insert item 701724 into db: FOREIGN KEY constraint failed1.e4failed to insert item 717338 into db: FOREIGN KEY constraint failedfailed to insert item 717338 into db: FOREIGN KEY constraint failedfailed to insert item 725634 into db: FOREIGN KEY constraint failedfailed to insert item 701857 into db: FOREIGN KEY constraint failed
