No, I am talking about FORCING a draw And as I said it only applies to tournament games. (i.e. where you sit right in front of your opponent)

I've never been to a tournament so I guess I don't know what you are talking about.

It is easy. What you do is: put a heavy object such as a baseball bat or a crowbar beside you, look deep into your opponent's eyes for about a minute, then offer a draw.

Just to remind everyone of the other puzzle I gave that still needs solving.


Here's another puzzle for you guys.

Play a game where white and black is cooperating to achieve the move 6.gxf8=N mate

This means on the 6th turn white will move his or her pawn from the square on g7 to f8 and turn that pawn into a Knight which will checkmate the black king.

Here's a picture to help show you what I'm looking for.

technically it's written like this

1. h4   d5
2. h5   Nd7
3. h6   Ndf6
4. hxg7 Kd7
5. Rh6  Ne8
6. gxf8=N#

When you upgrade a piece it should look like this

(move)=(piece)

so gxf8=N#

the # sign means checkmate

I see a checkmate in 1 as well as a checkmate in 2. Do I get extra points?

The only thing I can see that could lead to checkmate would be...

1. Qxb3 Kxc6

But I can't find checkmate after these two moves. Is this first move at least correct?

Who cares about copywrite for some stupid chess puzzle? Honestly that's just retarded. This is a fan forum for a video game that has nothing to do with chess at all. I don't think it's necessary.
