In general, it was fun to play with knooks and drops. Too bad white’s critical blunders (14. fxg3, 21. Ke1) were placeholder moves. Having 12 hours between moves would indeed be better, this prevents waking up to a lost position. Maybe extend the deadline to 24 hours if there are no comments yet, and not have placeholder moves at all. I’ll play if you host another.

Thanks for writing this comparison, very helpful.

Not mate, even though this is clearly losing for white. White can still play B@f1.

The only reasonable move.

After Qxg3+ that bishop is no real threat to black there. He can stay on vacation a bit longer. I’d suggest Kf2 (18. Kf2 Qxg3+, 19. Qxg3 and now neither knook nor knight can effectively check the white king.)

Qd3 (protects the pawn on g3)

and lshw -C network. On ubuntu 23.04 (where it works) it will show the driver and driver version.

Rh1 (prevents Qh3+)

Bishop comes back from vacation (finally)

The game was one of the inspirations for the name:

Why’s it called Lemmy?

• Lead singer from Motörhead.
• The old school video game.
• The Koopa from Super Mario.
• The furry rodents.

Lemmy uses a websocket connection to send updates to your browser. What seems to happen is that when you go from the thread view to a post, the websocket still receives updates for all posts, and the upvote counter changes whenever it receives an update for an unrelated post.

I believe the numbers are not shown if there are no downvotes.

Maybe I’m missing something here but it doesn’t seem like you can post to the communities of other instances.
