Fencer!! Please put limits on amounts of games a player has at one time..
I find it most ridiculous that players can have to almost 4000 games.. why is this necessary! It is frustrating enough that I wait quietly for her to make her moves..
Marfitalu: The rule has been in effect for more then 500 years, does anyone claim to have played prior to that??
It was introduced at about the same time as the 2 square pawn move to combat the effect of evading the enemy pawn too easily. Other rules introduced at about the same time: Castling. Unlimited Queen and Bishop moves.
There aren't that many rules really, it shouldn't be hard to learn them!! I did when I was about 6.
Daniel Snyder: Just because people are ignorant of the rule, doesn't mean that the rule doesn't exist. Frankly I'm astounded that someone who plays the game can NOT know the rule. How come???
Daniel Snyder: i won a $20 bet on the rule once- when i took a pawn en passant and was told i couldn't do it! i took the move back but we made the bet- left it at the bar and the next day i went to the library made a copy- went to bar and collected the $40;]
Daniel Snyder: i got caugt once thinking it wasn't there but as Marfitalu pointed out the rules don't exclude it I just thought they did. I won't forget again
Marfitalu: It might be better to do it as the smiley popup windows works. It would open a small box with a table of two columns - your language and the selected language - and you would click on a chosen phrase which would be added to the text area.
