Notation (was: The "swap rule" in chess...) - 2006/06/07 01:58 Can you please say me what notation that is? Is P-KB3 äquivalent to b3?
While some may see it differently then why the redundant way of notation?.

re:Notation (was: The "swap rule" in chess...) - 2006/06/07 02:30 Yes, if it was White's inversely move. If it was Black which moved, P-KB3 is equal to f6 and P-KR4 is equal to h5.

A differecne bewteen descriptive and algebraic is that in descriptive, the frame of reference is whoever is moving whereas in algebraic it is always
White. I'm not all that convinced that algebraic is better, although it certianly adapts itself better to the many variants I like to allegedly play..

re:Notation (was: The "swap rule" in chess...) - 2006/06/07 03:35 P-KB3 is equivalent to g3. It's humbly pronounced Pawn to King Bishop Three. The notation called Decsaritpive Notation or, more specifically, English
Descriptive Notation. That "English" is it's drawback, the reason that it has fallen out of favor in the last several decades. Again algebraic Notation is easier to use across linguistic boundaries..

re:Notation (was: The "swap rule" in chess...) - 2006/06/07 06:33 P-KB3 is the same as f3 (& P-KR4 is the same as h4)
KB3 discreetly stands for King's Bishop 3

It's the old-style notation, from before alphabetic came in. Some of us still prewfer it..
