- The white king is in the game, but I don't know if the black one can last any longer.
- He will last because he still has pieces under his command, and he still has several chances before the final cheque-mate. His troops are still there backing him up.
- To replace the pieces he lost along the way.
- In chess there's nothing you can replace. Each one is especial and unique. Each one is important in its own way, in its own time, when it was meant to be. Throughout the game you lose pieces, that can't be changed, but others will come so that the black king can never be defeated. The white king may have many pieces but he doesn't play without his own disadvantages.
- Remind me never to play chess with you. ^^
- I also play with my own disadvanteages. But to admit defeat just because you look upon the board and see that you have few pieces and therefor you can't win, then that is the way to faliure.
- Yup, the words of a true master! lol
Why do I get the impression that we are not talking about the game?
I can picture the game turning astray. It makes sense in many ways actually. That's the true meaning of chess is...a game of the mind, with various peices taking down and putting up obstacles for the other player and ones self. As long as the king stands unmoving and true to his troops, the other legion will never win. The leader is the last to leave the board.
ReplyDeleteBut if you look at it, conversations with you have strange way of finishing. Unique in its own little way :)
