So my brother challenged me earlier today, and I said yes because I haven't played in years (unless you count that one phase me and Akaku went through playing chess on a chat site, but that's another story). And as it turns out, he's pretty good at playing, since he beat me in the first game.

Naturally, I wasn't too thrilled about it, so we played again and I won, mostly because he blundered into a multi-check trap.

Then, wanting a tie-breaker, we played for the third time, but we wound up running around with just our kings, since we had captured all the other pieces.

We wound up calling that one a tie, since we couldn't figure out how to capture the other's king without getting our own caught in return, but I'll beat him next game. >=D
