ustica: Well but it´s not obvious. Jump side by side it´s like for example jump to right and left and this is allowed. By this reason the official rules says : "Within a multicapture turning 180 degrees between two captures is illegal." It´s logic because in this way all captures are ortoghonals but this norm must be included into the rules or in other case it should not be applied.

Ferjo: Thank you Ferjo. I am going to propose a little change of the written rules in BrainKing in the board of Checkers variants.

Ferjo: But on BrainKing i don´t see any rule demonstrates this move is ilegal. Now i know i can´t do it (too late because i moved thinking it´d be possible) but i think it´s legal on BrainKing because there isn´t any rule banning it.

At the end of the rules of Turkish Checkers says :
"The other rules are the same as Czech Checkers" and in Czech Checkers says : "The other rules are the same as Checkers". Reading all these rules I think this move is legal but reading other rules at internet the move is not legal.

Here in the rules of Checkers says too : "If the player has more possibilities to capture opponent's pieces, he/she can select any of them. However, when a queen (in variants with long jumps) can make a jump, the player cannot select a pawn to jump with." and this should be valid for the Turkish-BrainKing Checkers in accordance of the rules but the rules of http://www.geocities.com/karakusk/dama/rules.html say the opposite.

Are the rules unique? Are the rules wrong in BrainKing?

I would like to know which are the rules of Turkish in BrainKing because it´s difficult playing predicting the rules.

Ferjo:
Well, english is not my tongue so i always prefer to be kind and giving a second oportunity for a explanation. It´s not my problem if someone want to be coward. I don´t know if he wanted to be sarcastic or ironic, it´s not the same but i prefer to think he is intelligent and he was being ironic.
My question is : In accordance of the written rules of checkers in BrainKing is this move ilegal? Can it be demonstrated? Thank you Ferjo.

I think the rules of this game are wrong in BrainKing.

ustica: What does it mean "progr.."? I don´t understand you. It seems it´s an ilegal move but the rules doesn´t explain anything about this. Moreover, i think the rules are incorrect because in turkish checkers a player can not choose between two captures except when he captures the same number of pieces. Is it implemented?

Subject: Turkish Checkers
I am a beginner in checkers and i would like to propose two questions for learning a bit about checkers:
(1)
In this game of turkish checkers
http://brainking.com/es/ShowGame?g=1056575
the double capture 61...Qb3-h3 is an ilegal move?
I have read the rules of Turkish Checkers, Czech Checkers and Checkers and i am not sure about the reason of this move could not be legal.
(2)In the rules of Czech Checkers is written a player can choose between two possible captures but in Turkish Checkers is in this way too or maybe the player must make the capture of the biggest number of enemy pieces. Thank you.
