Upper-case is white, lower-case is black. White always goes first. I'll be black.
To move, just copy-paste the game board into your next post and wrap it in a Code tag so it's evenly spaced, then erase one of your (upper-case) letters and replace it with a space, and put that letter somewhere else on the board, as long as it's a legal move. To make things less confusing, you should probably say what kind of piece you moved on each post, and if you took one of the other guy's pieces or not too. And always ALWAYS announce "Check" if you put the other guy in check. It's a rule.
I assume you know the rules of Chess. If not, Wiki them. I want a serious player if at all possible, not someone who will make this into a joke. Chess is serious business.
Forgive the crude method of playing this game of Chess though. It's better than nothing at least.
White (upper case) goes first, so as soon as someone moves a white piece they'll be my opponent and we can start.
Good luck!
