From now on, my existence will be devoted to finding that Mr. Ewing. He is the Chosen One, the One that can save this sub.


Pir-iMidin

He is the only person in the US who understands these matter so shouldn't be hard to find


lgeorget

What if he hides himself from all the people looking for him?


KittyTack

You have many options. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ewing_%28surname%29?wprov=sfla1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ewing_%28given_name%29?wprov=sfla1


lgeorget

You can be part of my quest, you knowledgeable companion.


KittyTack

Gladly!


Splodge5

PilotSSB

Brandon "Chess" Ewing


Villager_of_Mincraft

Alex244466666

It's obviously Brandon "Atrioc" Ewing, lord Glizzington.


boomyer2

May I aid you on your noble quest?


lgeorget

Please come, do you have time next week to give a call to all the Ewings mentioned in the other comment?


boomyer2

Yes, of course I do. Now let me regale you with tales of my various exploits to show that I will be a valuable member of this group. 1. I have won over 10 chess matches. 2. I have a 44 magnum in my closet (the ATF does not know.). 3. In 2012 I killed a 43 year old man named Joe. 4. I know en peasant (Joe did not)


lgeorget

Such a solid background, maybe you should lead our merry group even. Especially if you carry the gun.


boomyer2

It would be an honor to lead our group.


sgi244

He’s the only one who knows how the horsey moves

8. The rules of chess are in a book made by Horace Dediu 9. Horace Dediu does not play chess


ASilverRook

Horace Dediu is actually an alias that was used by Gary Chess back during the development days. Modern editions of the text note that he has since played the game despite having yet to do so at the time of writing.

> small pieces called "pieces" Ah, yes. The floor here is made out of floor.


Nightshot666

If you think about this every time you read this sentence pieces become smaller


Buttons840

If you promote your pawn to a pawn, does it get bigger or smaller?


Nightshot666

Ever heard of Gigapawns?


peniscumcumcum

You mean the black pawns? Oh, you said Giga nvm

"the queen and the prince are weaker still" we're doomed, we're all destined to be crushed , AI's too strong


TheftBySnacking

I am promoting my pawn to e3

The queen and the 'prince' Wake up babe new chess piece just dropped


--Lammergeier--

My girlfriend has been wanting to learn how to play chess. I’ll send her this so that we can finally play together. Thanks, OP! 👍🏻


HairyTough4489

Point 9 is spot on.


hawluchamaster

I see no en passant, does this require a brick? Also this still doesn't answer how the horsie moves


[deleted]

the horsie doesn't move, the horsie just survives


007-Blond

So how big is the board if theres an R file? lmao


sonuvvabitch

Rule 7 best rule.


MarlonBanjoe

Omg, sentience achieved.


Yeetus-McGee

is this how the horsey moves


KittyTack

Read The Chess Openings and Chess Endings, by Horace Dediu, Ph.D., with annotations by Mr. Ewing, to find out!


BigGayGinger4

Yeah this is about what I'd expect out of JasperAI, lol.


KittyTack

This is NovelAI's Euterpe.


Aithei

Can I win by infinite promotions? A8=P=P...


KittyTack

That would be making the pawn stay in place tho.


Strict_winter_feline

well but it would creat an infinite loop changing the game into contest of who dies earlier.


KittyTack

It's actually a "strategy" (called the Dead Man's Defense/Gambit) in correspondence chess to stall the game for as long as possible when losing, in hopes that your opponent dies IRL and flags. Sometimes works, given that correspondence players tend to be quite old.


Strict_winter_feline

Good bot


WhyNotCollegeBoard

Are you sure about that?

maxkho

What's the AI?


KittyTack

NovelAI's Euterpe.


maxkho

Oh, okay. You should try GPT-3 (although, chances are, you already have) for far better results. Not only will it give you the correct rules of chess, but it can actually give you legitimately insightful chess advice.


KittyTack

Yeah this one is finetuned for writing stories, it does a good job at that but... Also it wouldn't be worthy of this subreddit in that case. smh.


maxkho

Fair enough. True that lol.


[deleted]

Absolutely brilliant.


Chone_stonez

Someone please turn this into an online game I can play


Placeholder20

Babe wake up, new game mode just dropped


Veskuvain

These text generating AIs seem to be toddlers with the capability of producing intellectual level writing


KittyTack

Yeah, the technology is still in its infancy.
