Gycixi0n:
Yes in Scotland, top players in pub leagues as far back as 60 years played it, they called it FIRST OF THE BOARD

suiy, anti, give away.. any other names ?

Suicide checkers has gone a long way for a couple years.

i have done it before it is possible not impossible

num1fire: Really ? I'd love to see that ! Is there a game where this happened ?

if u have 2 kings and your opponent only has 1 king there is a way to trap them and take it it would take a while but it can be done :-)

hope we can build something important in here about suicide checkers :) let's do it !!!!

MicrobicPine: ISCA is a new association, membership is free (talk to George Miller),and the plan is that the ISCA will have on a regularly basis a TY here on BK. ISCA also organizes their own world champion ship.
www.wcdf.net/index.php

About the ISCA tournament, can anyone join it, or you have to be a ISCA member? Another question, is ISCA an official association or just another tournaments organizer, same as InfinityHosting, for example?
Greetings, ppl....

Why is it that the people that I pick to play are such sore losers? They end up letting the game sit and time out.

If you want to see a joke,look at my game with Hitman,game has been won so he takes two months but cant finish it....Chasing Tomorrow vs Hitman

grand792: is there another jump you can take with the same checker you allready jumped with. If you have 2 or 3 jumps in the same turn you have to take them all

i jumped but ut won't go to move . keeps coming up make another selection. am supposed totake my jumps

BIG BAD WOLF:
Nope BBW, you can choose between Parachute and pawn, but when it involves a Queen, always a Queen.
I hope you join me in my crusade against Fencer in regarding Checkers Varinat rules now... ;-)
Just kidding, sorry Fencer. :-)

Fencer: Ok, what if you have a choice between a pawn & a parachutist. (Situation may come up in my next move in another game)

Does one over the other have to make the jump?

BIG BAD WOLF: You must always jump with a queen if you can.

Ok, Checker rules state:

"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."

So how does that apply with a parachutist?

I have a game in which if I make the move I want, I will have an option to jump it with either my queen, or my parachutist.

To keep control of the game, I need to be able to jump it with my parachutist, not the queen.

So according to the rules, I should be able to jump with the parachutist - UNLESS the system counts the parachutist as a pawn.

thanks very much.

reza:
The move finished after the pieces reaches the last row

hey all. I'm new to this game and have a question. if a piece reaches the last row and promotes to a queen, and there are other queens on the last row, can it jump over them and capture them or is the move finished after the pieces reaches the last row?

Pedro Martínez: There is a queen in variants with long jumps. Gothic Checkers doesn't belong to that category.

It really confuses me: This is what the checkers rules say: "However, when a queen (in variants with long jumps) can make a jump, the player cannot select a pawn to jump with". THERE IS NO QUEEN IN CHECKERS!!! How can I make a move when I don't know what my opponent is allowed to do and what not???

He will have to jump with his king.

Can someone please look at this game:
http://brainking.com/game/ShowGame?g=508803

If I move my King to F2, will taikoki have to make a jump with his King or will he be able to choose between King and Pawn?

Ferjo: Thanks Fergo,you played the game when you were young but i'm sure it goes back even further than that,my game,regular checkerswas played BC

patch:
Well I played when I was a child on real boards, with fewer pieces (12 for each player) but i don't remember from where came from.

Gothic checkers does anyone know the origin

umm....yea, I'm completely confused now...forget I said anything. @_@

Is it really necessary to mention that in rules...it's as if you wanted Fencer to mention in the rules of chess that you cannot move to row 9.

kasım merhaba

"No, the checkers at the top [bottom] are really stuck. Should I mention that in the rules?"

^I meant that.

afedersin hiç dikkat etmedim benim ise Metin2

It is. There is a note in Checkers rules about variants with long jumps.

in my opinion you should mention that in the rules.

size rakip öok yeter ki oynamak isteyin

dama dunyada bir izmirde birde lubnanda oynanır

herkes bu damayı cok iyi bilerim der. fakat bu oyunu bilmek kadar uzun tecrübelerden gecmek cok önemlidir.bazı sahıslar damayı kücümserler ama damanın risalesi bile vardır.damanın ustaları bazen sehir sehir gezer dama oynayacak bir oyuncuyu bulmak ve onunla tanısabilmek için ama ne yazıkki internet ortamında gerektiği kadar bulunmuyor umarım bu oyunu bizim sahip cıkabilmemiz ve dünyaya daha iyi tanıtabilmemiz.....

If I recall right, should be zero add to both players because the difference its not big enought for taking points from you. I will say you should report the game to Fencer and explain the situation.
