We were trying to have 18 queens on the chess board in a legal game. We did it in 99 moves. I'm pretty sure it be done faster because we did not always have a concrete plan. ;)

  • I hate to pee in your Cheerios, but those moves weren't exactly legal lol. When a king is in check, you have to move him out of check in that turn... or the game ends. With EIGHTEEN queens (lawl) it's kind of hard to do that.

    Still cool though. :)

  • @OnEpicProportions

    All moves in the game above are legal. It was played on fics (free internet chess server) which allows legal moves only. I have still stored the game in my journal, so if you want, I can send you the full list of moves so you can replay it. :)

  • did you read "about the video"? it says "We were trying to have 18 queens on the chess board in a legal game."....a legal game usually means legal moves too :)

  • Then, all the queens go shopping and talking about how promiscuous the kings are, and never come back. Final position: two sad and undefended kings. Draw.

    Well-deserved. XD

  • lol..looks like the kings are having a dirty good time!

see all
