[MUL]-[EX] Naughty Chess {CLOSED}

[Sethite]

Might be fun. May I join?

[Xillen]

If it's all male on one team, all female on the other team, I could be interested.

Don't wanna risk having my piece taken by another male's piece :/

[Erebus]

@Sethite:
You are most welcome.

rotfl.
That was my original plan, but we're kinda short on ladies.

Yes, more guys than gals, but that shouldn't be a problem. Of course not everyone that posted in here might play, but I don't think it's that hard to end up with 4 ladies playing, so they can each "control" 2 pieces and the associated pawns in front of them. The guys could "control" 1 piece and the associated pawn in front and it would all work out.

Or you could go with a 4-4 match, that would work as well. Would leave a couple of guys out, but "full is full", so to say.

You could also check with a goddess if it's ok to post the discussion threads on the Lords only/Ladies only boards. Might even draw some attention :P

[Erebus]

It may sound silly, but can someone explain the mechanics to me?

Will someone be controlling the game from behind the scenes, or do we make it up ourselves, because it's going to require a LOT of interplayer communication.

Sorry for taking so long to respond...

The mechanics, well like you said, and i believe it has been discussed in this thread before, each team's king will have the last word about the move. But the whole team should elaborate in order to figure out the best move to make.  So yes a lot of talking would take place in the corresponding threads.

Would you care to join?

I trust since we're all Ladies and Gents here, that no one will sneak peak into the other team's thread. And even if so, we could arrange some king of punishment ;)

On the subject of players now, i think i'm gonna wait a little bit longer, just in case some females decide to join  ;D

[cattycutie]

I'm still interested. I was just making sure.

[Xillen]

True, but you still need to house them somewhere. The discussion threads wouldn't be RP threads, though maybe they can be considered OOC threads.

Yes man. Exactly that: Naughty Chess OOC [White | Black]

[Sethite]

So, when it will start?

[Erebus]

Good day (or whatever is over there).

We are set to go.

I have created these threads:

We have the ladies team with (the get to choose color as well)
Thaleia
Oniya
Cattycutie
Crystaltears
Sethite

For the guys team now, we have to make a decision:
Should we stick to five players as well, which leaves out caliban, darktide and Xillen,
or if everyone agrees (ladies included) we could play 8 males against 5 females, so we could all have some fun. Of course that leaves us guys with less pieces to control hence less action, but, hey it's only a game.

[Oniya]

I personally have no preference as to how many guys join the thread, as it balances out with the number of total pieces.

[Duchess]

i think we can handle more than 1 piece in the ladies team. So no need to leave the guys out

[Xillen]

You ladies get to pick a color it seems, so one of you should just scream "white", so the game can start :P

Erebus, what were you planning to do with the King piece and hitting? If it's a checkmate, do you immediately get to "hit the king" with an available piece, or does the king receive one last move in vain?

8 players seems relatively easy. Each player controls one piece, and the pawn in front of that piece.

5 players, you could do:

Rook + pawns in front of rook and knight. (2x)
Knight + bishop + pawn in front of bishop. (2x)
Queen + pawns in front of king and queen.

Which leaves the king. Could leave that to the player that saw the least action, or maybe just whoever feels (or feel) up for it at the time.

[Duchess]

no way sweetie.. Giving the guys the head start

[Erebus]

Ok, so ladies get the blacks. Blokes get the whites.

We'll be playing 8 males vs 5 females.

Next thing is how to handle the fights.

[Federico]

handle the fights? What do you want to handle? Ain't it just a narration between the players involved? If someone eats my pawn, we tell in a few posts the gorish dismissal.. then the play goes on.

Or you mean the fights inside one part?

[Oniya]

Well, technically, the capturing piece gets to do whatever they want to the captured piece as long as it ends in death.  There could be opportunity for some interaction in the mean-time. (Does anyone remember Archon or Battle Chess?)

[Xillen]

Battle chess!

Loved the rook eating the queen. ;) (I liked the scenes of the queen losing in general, but that's a different matter ;)

[Oniya]

Heck, I had friends that just liked making pointless queen moves. (A8-H1) followed by (H1-A8)

[TheWriter]

For the record, I would've loved to play this if it weren't for the 'losing piece must result in death' part.  Otherwise I would've jumped on it.  Perhaps down the line, if another game gets started, could we have the enemy pieces get captured/imprisoned/dominated instead?

Well, that was kinda my quirk man. Maybe next time..

Alright this thread has officially served it's purpose and it will be locked.
Further discussion should take place to the generic OOC thread here:
