That was the slowest and heaviest queen checkmate I've witnessed.

That Queen slowly walking towards the victim gave me Jason and Michael Myers vibes. Very nice

That "knights can't jump" rule was a bit weird, I think it was supposed to mean that they can't move over other pieces, not that they can't move at all. Because why would the rules otherwise say that you can move at most 2.25 squares, which is just a tiny bit over one knight move's length, and that extra 0.25 would be irrelevant to all other pieces? But anyway, if knights can't jump, they can't move that >2.25 distance in a straight line but have to do one step diagonally and one step orthogonally, which totals in a move lenght of ~2.41 which isn't allowed. Or one could argue that knights always jump, so if they can't jump, they can't move (which I think was Simp's reasoning for not moving his nags).

Your knights can move, 2.236 < 2.25, they just aren't allowed to jump.

Great concept and great win!

start a count of how many times simp says “very aggressive, i’ll take this pawn”

Subscribed accidently and couldn't believe I wasn't already subscribed.

Actually your knights would be allowed to move. Using the pythagorean theorem the length of one nights move is sqrt(2^2 + 1^2) = sqrt(4 + 1) = sqrt (5) < 2.25.

He wasn't trying to defend shit with that knight, he was making the supreme play of hoping you don't see the knight takes Queen and also don't have any plans

Bro didn't realize that a knight's move is only 2.24 squares, which is therefore legal. (Though the rules still prevent jumping horsies)
