THANK YOU @GothamChess and @GMHikaru for shouting me out on the #PogChamps3 stream on @chesscom!

@VaniasChase AWS had a scheduled maintenance for the server, it's back up now!

Check out the new way you can play #Chessle - with Piece Square Matching! With Piece Square Matching, a move is considered to be the same as another move if the same piece moved from the same starting square to the same ending square.

@PHChess I could believe it, it's probably either this or something similar (minus the double Nc3). I haven't done the exact analysis to micro-optimize the move order, but in general this probably hits all the common moves and has strategic early move placement to narrow down the options

[Jack Li @jackli_gg]

You may pick between the two modes before guessing every day, but your choice is set after submitting a guess. Enjoy, and please let me know what other features you'd like added!

Exact Notation Matching examples:

Nxe5 IS NOT the same as Ne5.
Qh5+ IS NOT the same as Qh5.
Nbd7 IS NOT the same as Nd7.
Nb5 where the knight moves from a3->b5 IS the same as Nb5 where the knight moves from c3->b5.
e5 played by White IS the same as e5 played by Black.

@MattGr1989 When plugged into Lichess opening explorer, after 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 c5 3. Nf3 the name becomes "English Opening...", it seems to be a transposition from the 1. c4 c5 2. Nf3 Nf6 3. d4 move order. The d4 move order also seems to be more popular than the c4 one.

@RatelChess That's weird, I see others posting 174 for today. Does it work if you refresh the page and copy again?

[Jack Li @jackli_gg]

Apologies for the unexpected downtime on #Chessle, issues have been resolved and everything is back now. Enjoy :)

[Jack Li @jackli_gg]

@singh_17__ That's amazing, I'm very glad to hear that!!

[Jack Li @jackli_gg]

@woahsia Does it have to do with any of these rules? https://t.co/eTK54NJwVm

[Jack Li @jackli_gg]

Friendly reminder for newer Chessle players: As stated in the rules, moves are only the same if the notation is exactly the same (Qh5 is not the same as Qh5+). Also, yellow means the move could’ve been played by EITHER player. Enjoy! :)

@jackli_gg Hey jack, my name is Max and I have more Instagram followers at the age of 16. I have no contributions to the internet however I am more popular online than you. You have made multiple efforts at success with your online games, however, they have gained no support.😃👍

[Jack Li @jackli_gg]

@ekiM2K Nf6 is a discovered check since the black Queen is now checking the king :)

[Jack Li @jackli_gg]

@vano_massimo That's great to hear Max, hope you have a nice day :)

[Jack Li @jackli_gg]

@SteveThibault This actually used to be a feature but somehow it added more confusion for some people thinking that it was what they guessed :D Maybe it could be reintroduced if I can figure out how to make it clearer what's going on

[Jack Li @jackli_gg]

@davividal Yellow means it could've been played by either white or black, as long as the notation is exactly the same :) https://t.co/ExksDFxYSe

@chess_kawanaka Yes that is correct :)
