IMHO true smothered mate is when the king is totally surrounded by their own army. I call your game a case of semi-smothered mate. Have a breathful day

Subject: Ambiguous rule.
In the rules for knightmate chess this is written: following standard castling rules [ ] no square between the knight and the rook may be attacked by an opponent's piece).
But this is not standard. The standard rule is that castling is legal if b1 or b8 is attacked. Is this contravened in knightmate chess?

Is it random who is white and black in tournament games or is the highest rated player white? I've had 12-13 games straight where I'm black

Subject: Re: Atomic chess
tufflips: the tournament creator defines it. Unless he defines 'random' and then it is ... kind of random.

Maybe it was '2-games-each'? And you got all your black moves on a row, against all opponents?

Hello, do you happen to know why in this position (after move 40 of black) Ledové šachy (VereNice vs. kortyxx)
is the square c6 an ice cube?

kortyxx: it already was an ice cube before the Ice Age came. Probably a left-over from previous Ice Ages.
