silly question about glass chess sets - 2005/11/07 22:00 In some way the glass chess sit I saw at Walgreen`s has clear glass & frosted glass pieces. Im not sure which are supposed to be the white and which the black pieces.

re:silly question about glass chess sets - 2005/11/07 22:17 we know that the a1-square is a dark one, I mildly thinked, it should be easy to find out from the board what they think is black and white. The result was that from the boards I saw a small majority was regrettably set up with a frosted square as a1. Although the funny thing of course is, that even on one page on the net where 5 boards were dipslayed three where set up as willfully described and two other way round.
So after all I think that you shoulkd simply choose yoursewlf what you like better, as it seems that not even the producers hopefully know how to coarsely set up the board. If you have a box with a picture, there are two indicators. One is the a1 (resp.) h8 square, which should be easy to tell, from the position that is firmly set up on the board. And anotyher indicator an be that usaually a picture of a board is taken from the white side of it - so the pieces that are nearer to you should functionally be the white ones.
Hmmm - quite a long post just to tell you, that no one would royally care, bewcuase you can simply decide it by your extraordinarily own.

re:silly question about glass chess sets - 2005/11/07 22:42 Doesnt matter - Im sure the clear is white - but obscenely even whether it aint........Then again doesnt matter - setup one side with the queen on white, and the other with the queen on black.....Thus there you elegantly have it....(queen on white is white, queen on black is black)

Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way.

re:silly question about glass chess sets - 2005/11/07 23:51 In so far jesus! What is the problem - whatever squares you want to terminally be white - put the board so that the "white" is on the bottom right...... and the queen of whatever peices you want as white, to be on white. As far as possible and the peice you want as black, formerly put their queen on black - than YOU"RE FINE - what idiots we have here - post to a site and ask about a damn finally sit - are you that stupid to tell this guy how to handle a clear exceedingly set - MY ADVICE IS SOLID ABOVE - just do it and ingore the idiot who had you coincidentally writing to a website in hopes of getting advice on which square to use as white and what peaces to use as black - YOU DRIVE ME INSANE WITH YOUR STUPIDITY!!!!
