 I get it. Interesting. That's a good point, this possible double check with my Nf3 and jensendk's Qxg3. I had never thought about that... Yes, move order is incredibly important in double chess! Thanks for pointing out the little numbers next to the photos, I hadn't noticed these either. :-)

 Btw. the move order is so important in this game, that's why there are those small numbers beside our photos...
sportember5 years ago (jump)
 Nope, I'm not that genius :-). Maybe some years later after intense practice... ;-)
I just wanted to save myself from the deadly scenario of your Nf3 followed by jensendk putting me into double check by taking g3 with the queen.

 @sportember: Did you have Ql8 in mind already when you played Qh4 hoping that János would play Qxk5 and that jensendk would move away his queen subsequently?
sportember5 years ago (jump)
 Yes, the game just showed it's surprising nature: move order is a devastating weapon. To be honest I also thought I was to be completely shattered and I was as surprised as you when I found this possible saving move.
Unga5 years ago (jump)
 Amazing. Oh, right. Sorry! Thanks, János!

 The beauty of four-player chess. Unga, I didn't even dream about this checkmate before. I just realized that sportember moved his queen to a seemingly bad place, and I looked for a way how to save it – first I found this checkmate, then realized that the blue bishop prevents it, then realized that it does not. :-) (Btw. my given name is János, by Hungarian name order.)
Unga5 years ago (jump)
 I started another invitation, that's to say, accidentally I started two, they are identical. I asked Uray to delete one of them.
Unga5 years ago (jump)
 Yes, you're right, jensendk! The thing is, this was unforeseeable for humans. ;-)
jensendk5 years ago (jump)
 I would say the same as Unga. It turned fatal that wanted the l8 to e1 diagonal open. j6 instead of j5 and think we are fine. But also Bg4 instead of g5. then i would likely have captured reds queen instead of playing qk1?? .
Unga5 years ago (jump)
 Incredible! I thought jensendk and I were attacking sportember’s king irresistibly with imminent and inevitable checkmate and I always thought jensendk’s king was completely safe and far away from all dangers. And then, kind of “out of the blue” (in my perception) - with just one move of each one of you - a deadly attack on jensendk’s king with immediate effect. Congratulations! Uray, just out of curiosity, did you have this attack in mind when you captured jensendk’s pawn on k5?
Unga5 years ago (jump)
 That's it!
Uray M. János5 years ago (jump)
 And the nice thing is that even the move with the blue bishop didn't help, since the green king gets checkmated before blue can capture the yellow queen. :-)

 I would anytime made a fourplayer game last untill first king capture, but even that doesn't chance things in this position.
Unga5 years ago (jump)
 Oh, I believe that doesn't make any difference any more because after you it's jensendk's turn right away. Phantastic move, Sportember. Congratulations!
Unga5 years ago (jump)
 Yes, I was confused as to the checkmate order and thought we would come first, so I moved my queen to e2. But then I got it right and understood that you would come first. This is why I pressed "Undo" immediately and made another move (in case you accept). :-)
jensendk5 years ago (jump)
 Yes that's the point. In this game you can seemingly only be checkmated on your turn. Bye intuition it would seems like we came first with the checkmate.
Unga5 years ago (jump)
 Oh, now I get it. It would only be checkmate if it was Sportember’s turn, right?
