I am at my friends house in Reading..England.

Its his house warming...and well....sometimes challenges are made...and sometimes one must rise to the occasion.

In this case its Chess. Outside.

Red V White

Wine that is....piece taker drinks the piece taken.

OMFGLOL :D

great idea :D

Its brilliant...We are having a party and the chess tournay has been underway for about 2 and a half hours....there are people lining up to play...

I just gutted I am out of the comp...:(

I have that chess set, bad idea!

I played vodka vs ouzo, a dash of orange in the vodka and a splash of water in the ouzo, so orange vs white. Nasty. I can't even smell annicede without wanting to throw up now.

Played less toxic version of using only one bottle of spirit. Mix half the vodka with Coca Cola and the other half with Irn Bru (or equally dissimilar mixers). Still had to be put to bed, but was never in danger of death.

nah....strictly fine wine:)

We had a champ...who promptly puked up after his final victory...after paly 3 full games...

That would introduce a whole new strategy to chess, all I would have to do is hold on until my opponent was too drunk to play anymore.

That's the most amazing way to play chess, ever, I must start playing again! :)

More advanced players can be disadvantaged by giving them stronger alcohol.

Anyway, if you ask me, I'd say that this (http://www.chesscenter.com/twic/event/eurotel02/1sosonko.jpg) or this (http://www.travelmate.com.tw/event/image/A235.gif) would be the real way to play chess.

well i'm not a moron but i do believe that there are genitic diferences between the races. and i for one think that its good to be differnt

that would be interesting
Playing it fast and loose with the word interesting.

Black: e5: d5
White: h7: h2
Black: a1: b3
White: c3: c7
White: Checkmate.
Black: Damn!
Black: I didn't see that one

After reading about boddy fischer in the times, and their description of him as "virulently anti american and anti semitic" I adore the crazy bastard.

The fact that there are not relevent genetic differences between "races" is a matter of established, proven fact.

"Belief" applies to it no more than to gravity or magnetism.

In short, you sound like a barbarian religious nut, i.e. the anti-science 'creationist' mob.

well i do believe in god it's my beliefe that evelution was his plan

Welcome back to NS, where the stylised battle of black versus white on the chessboard quickly devolves into a debate about the gnetic differences between the different races...

That would make for the most fascinating game of Bughouse ever.

Bughouse requires two boards and 4 players. Their partner is the opposite color so it's like this:

W B <-------one team
- -
B W <------other team

The games proceed as normal, no taking turns or anything. Each game proceeds at a normal pace. The boards are seperate, so it's not like crossing over back and forth is possible. Anyway, whenever a member of one team (white 1 for instance) kills a black piece, he passes it over to his team mate. During his team mate's turn he has the option to not move any pieces and place any piece his team mate has given him almost anywhere on the board. The only rules for piece placing is you can't put them on your opponents back row, put your opponent in check, or take a piece. You can, however, place a pawn right next to the back row for the queen upgrade. Or you can block a check attempt with a piece. I had one game where one team had about 18 pieces total, and the other had about 6 in reserve and 40 in play. Game 1 had fast players and Game 2 had slow players.

Not to mention I've had 4 queens (two pawns and both white queens) in one game. When one game ends, all the pieces in reserve are unavailable. So if your team mate is about to lose, you can hurry and sacrifice to get him some help, or start using your reserved pieces to help you out.

It's a great game! I've addicted so many friends to it. If you get two teams of evenly matched players, the game can go for ages.

Any questions about details, feel free to ask! I'd be happy to help.

i would like more details it sound like alot of fun

That's pretty much it. If you have any questions about the details, or how it'll work out, feel free to ask. But the above is pretty much all the rules.

Facinating.

To the wine drawer!

Holland is a country

---From "Seinfeld"---
Jerry: Holland? You mean The Netherlands?
George: Right, Holland & the Netherlands, same place.
Jerry: Ok. Then who are the Dutch?

What IS up with that 3 names thing?

Whisky and Vodka! Shit, a drinking game that may actually be lethal!

Only here.

Vodka is rubbing alcohol that they spray hairspray into.

Single malt scotch whisky is god's gift to man.

Well all said it was a great success.

A piece of advice....doing it with spirits would kill you LOL

Ah but the question of relevance is not a scientific one, it's a social one.
