Bad, bad, bad pawn :=)
Someones been playing Bughouse with my good set again….
I can’t tell if it’s a girl pawn or a boy pawn.
“Hmmm, green felt on the bottoms of the pieces —- what an innovative idea!”
Sam in Lubbock
and this little pawny went wee-wee-wee aaaaaaaallll the way home.
I said DONT MOVE yet, are we clear
The bottom’s missing on this one. Is this a bad omen?
please become a passed pawn this time
You see? There is a hidden mind control device right here!
I’m going to promote you to queen, I promise…
Wow! These Chocolate pieces look great, and we have to eat each one we capture?
look! it says: sacrifice me!
“OK, Topalov, first the basics, this is called a pawn. It moves….”
How much would Ivanchuk check if Ivanchuk could check wood?
not a quite, but… he kinda looks like he could be a member of The Beatles in this picture. LOL
“Made in china” ? WTF
Look, even this pawn is made in China.
“Testing…testing…one…two…three…”

You should finally learn en passant rule. OK?
“See this is the evil pawn! If it wasnt against me and my mind I wouldnt have lost it and I would have won the game. But he talked me into playing QxQ RxB BXR Nxp Bxh7+ Kxh7 Rxp pxR and Rc1 back rank mate”! “Next time I wont talk to this bad evil pawn and he wont control my mind again”! Professor Fluub said at Shady Acres rest home.
Bobby Fischer angrily complained to the arbiter Lother Schmidt, see this faulty workmanship the felt isnt in the center of the pawn, and it effects the equilibrium of the pawn not only when I move it but when it is just sitting on a square! How can I put this pawn in the center of the square I move it too! No way! The Russians new they would interrupt my concentartion with this lopsided pawn! What do you think Boris, Boris….Wake up Boris”!! “I wouldnt be surprised if the Russians didnt put a tv camera in this pawn to violate our agreement on cameras and I think I hear the cameras motor making noise, listen its going wrrrrrrr wrrrrrrr. Thats it Im out of here”! Game 2 was forfeited and now you know the rest of the story. This is Paul Harvey, Good day.
“With embedded microchip Rybka they will play by themselves, see? Human no longer needed!”
(the even darker response to this is that soon humans might embed microchips wired directly to the cerebral cortex…not exactly what Garry meant by “Active Chess”, alas…)
you have to stroke them juuust right
Thiiiisss iiiissss aaaa paaawnnnnn.
Tiny crib notes? So, THAT’S how Topalov did it!
Ah.. It’s my version of Fischer Random – we randomise the position of everything on the second row instead of the first. Now, where shall I put this pawn?
Very funny Vishy! Super-gluing my finger to the pawn and then starting the clock!
