If you keep checking, I just keep moving the King, becoming an infinity loop.

Yeah, there's nothing I can do unless you make a mistake. So, white forfeits. New Game:SplinterStrike wrote:

Yeah that's what I thought he would do. Or if I was him, I would move towards the pawns. But if it's just going to be a loop..Canin wrote:
You could always work the king closer to the rook, diagonally, and eliminate the problem, course it would take about 3-4 turns
Where is my "you were right Macbeth" karma?Yeah, there's nothing I can do unless you make a mistake. So, white forfeits.
Does anyone have a super computer to test this theory?SplinterStrike wrote:
You should check from row E, giving white a chance to grab black's knight. Sure, it's covered by the rook, but in 2-3 moves, you can win the piece. A knight and a rook can cover eachother to an extent, but when pressed, especially on such an empty board, you'll lose one. Then it becomes a game of protect the pawn.
Ask Hakei, he'll say the same. Likely be able to in more detail though.Macbeth wrote:

If we restarted and you played as white and I played as black, you would not win.SplinterStrike wrote:

It's what I saidHakei wrote:
What are you guys doing. That game is fine, continue.
I'll edit this with a wall of text so you know what I mean.
In fact, no wall of text needed.
There's sufficient material for both sides to win (You can mate with just a King and a Rook). While it's a tough win for white, it's not impossible to pull out a draw or even win this match.
The advantage of Black isn't the end of the world. White still has a fighting chance.
