Sherifastro: I think the king has 9 points because it has same power as the queen but limited distance, i believe its because it the most important piece and also the main aim of the game.,
As for the pawn, the reason they are as important as any other piece in the game is because of promotions. every pawn is a potential queen. So to me apart from Queen pawn is the next important piece, i dont just loose or sacrifice my pawn unless am certain i will capture a rook, knight, or bishop. So correct |

Collinz2: Have you guys notice computer sometimes castle quickly, are they really protecting the king or just making the two rooks and the queen comes closer together making em poweful. I guess they are trying to protect the King and the same time trying to control the centre |

Collinz2: how come the King has 9 points and i heard that pawns are as important as any other piece in the game. I guess it's because the King is the most important piece in the Board |

Sherifastro: Fifty move rule occurs if you or your opponent moves any of your pieces 50 times without any capture. The game ends in a draw. Some rules says 15 moves instead of 50. So rules always changes,
Threefold repetition the threefold repetition rule means a player can claim a draw if the same position occurs three times, or will occur after their next move, with the same player to move. The repeated positions do not need to occur in succession. The idea behind the rule is that if the position occurs three times, no progress is being made.
Samething applies to fourfold repetition, but 4 moves instead of 3. Thanks jare, for the enlightenment |

Sherifastro: En Passant is simply when you make a capture after a pawn is moved two squares forward from its starting position.
So for example, when you move a pawn as White from e2 to e4 and you pass a black pawn sitting at d4 then Black can capture your e-pawn en passant because you passed it.
The opposing pawn can capture it the same way, as if it had only moved one square forward. After it is captured, the chess position is the same as if the pawn had only moved one square forward.
This chess rule applies only, if the pawn has not moved before during the game and is still sitting on its original square.
See pic
White pawn moves 2 square forward and black move to the black square diagonally and picks up the white pawn that moves 2 squares This en passant move is so annoying eh |

abham: i know how to castle, but the 'root' is what i don't understand. You mean the ROOK , Well the Rook is supposed to be with the King always, and should be moved only when it's absolutely necessary, and try to get your rooks positioned at the center. |

abham: I downloaded chess on pc chess Lv 100, its level is from 1-100. I've only checkmated level 1-4 in rating mode, that one there is no hint and undo in rating mode. Its also difficult for me to checkmate in level 5 because i really don't know the movement of the king. King ain't supposed to move but should be protected by all means, and should only be moved when necessary. |

mrvitalis: This is a tax that apply only to the rich and I'm happy about it  TAX Can never punish the rich, the poor and middle class will always be the one at the receiving end. That was how the poor masses voted tax into law when there was no tax, and it ended up hurting the very people who voted for it. There's no way to punish the rich, they have the money, the connections and the power to challenge the status quo. |

Egypt is the greatest civilization in history, do you Know that knowledge actually began in Egypt,
Philosophy didn't start in Greece it actually started in Egypt, most of the early Greek philosophers, like Thales, Anaximander, Anaximenes, Socrates, Plato, and others all of them studied in Egypt all their writings was all that they studied in Egypt,
Egypt had 3 main philosophy Schools,
0. Memphite School at Memphis 1. Hemopolitan 2. Heliopolitan
Memphis was the seat of great civilization, the Greeks actually stole Egypt knowledge and credited themselves as the first philosophers, meanwhile they studied everything in Egypt.
And according to what one particular user said,
Egyptians are originally black people they are not white , Arabs originated from Saudi Arabia, it was through jihad and conquest to spread Islam that brought the Arabs to North Africa.
They conquered many cities just to spread Islam.
Respect to Egypt. |

EniHolar: I have interest in playing chess since the first time I saw some guys playing it over 10 years ago. Although I never knew what the game was all about but from the way they gave it 100% unwavering attention, I knew the gains will be worth the pains. Someone (an amateur too sha ) later explained the functions of the 'people' on the chessboard (some months back when I went visiting)... and I realised it's actually more than a game.
