intro + problem - 2007/02/02 20:40 Hi everybody

My name is rourkey and i'm from Manchester.

Me and my friend had a friendly fall out which has not been resolved even through a couple of rule books.

It was my move and i picked my queen up moved it to a certain square but kept hold of the piece then changed my mind and put the queen back in the original square and took my hand off the queen.

Then i moved the queen to a different square and took my hand off and this was my move.

My russian friend says once my hand came off the queen (even though my hand came off the queen in its original square) he says i should honour the move.

I think i can move the queen somewhere else.

He says the way he was taught in Russia my hand came off the queen after i put the queen back and that should be my move.

I'de love this resolved

Thanks everybody

Rourkey

I'm sorry to say, but the they we play (offline I mean) is like your Russian friend.

You touch a piece you move it, you removed your finger from the piece - you've finished your move.
