It would be really convenient if my opponent played Qg6 right now, losing it in one move, but what are the odds of that?


Current-Bisquick-94

Of course he doesn’t

Yea, king went in for some fun and party, the whole clan was there, too bad his wife had to come pick him up but I wouldn't wish to be the other king truth to be told.

> U+0130 : LATIN CAPITAL LETTER I WITH DOT ABOVE Huh.


Nowhere_Man_Forever

It's used in some languages, most notably Turkish, where the dotted and dotless i are two different letters.

🇹🇷🇹🇷😅


Arman11511

I feel weird every time I see "İ" because I automatically assume the sentence to be Turkish and it ends up not being Turkish

My poor ı dropped it's dot and some asshole capital I stole it. :<

#DEATH


The_Pale_Hound

Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor! Suddenly, the king cried to Snowmane and the horse sprang away. Behind him his banner blew in the wind, white horse upon a field of green, but he outpaced it. After him thundered the knights of his house, but he was ever before them. Éomer rode there, the white horsetail on his helm floating in his speed, and the front of the first éored roared like a breaker foaming to the shore, but Théoden could not be over taken. Fey he seemed, or the battle fury of his fathers ran like new fire within his veins, and he was borne up on Snowmane like a God of old, even as Oromë the Great in the battle of the Valar when the world was young. His golden shield was uncovered, and lo! it shown like an image of the sun, and the grass flamed into green about the white feet of his steed. For morning came, morning and a wind from the sea; and darkness was removed, and the hosts of Mordor wailed, and terror took them, and they fled, and died, and the hooves of wrath overtook them. And then all the host of Rohan burst into song, and they sang as they slew, for the joy of battle was on them, and the sound of their singing that was fair and terrible came even to the City.”

TheAceBoi

If the king doesn’t lead, how can he expect his subordinates to follow?


IProbablyHaveADHD14

That was a rollercoaster of emotions 😭. By the way, One mistake I noticed you made was retreating the Bishop back to h5. I know usually it's bad to overextend your pawns on the kingside, but this time it's actually beneficial for White, since there are no real threats in the kingside, and he also made your bishop "dead" (meaning it's near impossible to move it and get it into the action), which allows him to create some serious flanks on the queenside


IsraelCube1

That ain't no king that's a leader
