@spacepwerico Ask what it is they want you to do, then scope the size of the ask and price accordingly.

@chesscom Game master, for Chess the tabletop RPG.

@Simi_2210_ E = 45, F = 15, 45/15 = 3.

@xxChessMaster If black ignores taking the knight then Kh7. Black's only move after is to push the pawn f5, but white can move the king out in time and it's zugzwang.

[Eric Johnston @Nerd_Rocker]

@xxChessMaster If black's rook ever moves away from the back rank without check, white can push to d8 for mate. Once Rxf8, Kf2 blocking the mate. Black can move Rh8 and f7 but the white knight can keep blocking h3, f4, h5, then f6. If gxf6 then white moves g7 and black's rook is stuck on g8.

@xxChessMaster Because pawn takes Q

[Eric Johnston @Nerd_Rocker]

@GMIgorSmirnov Qa8 prevents black from moving the bishop, black is forced to take h6 as it is the only legal move. Then Qa1#

@Ifwmusicalot @ayeejuju @grok One has the exponent of e^x^ as 2+7x, the other has the exponent of e^ as x^2 + 7x

[Eric Johnston @Nerd_Rocker]

@Manuel_DJRH @xxChessMaster What about Bb6 instead of b7?

[Eric Johnston @Nerd_Rocker]

@GMIgorSmirnov Qd2 covers all possible moves by black. If a2, then Qb2. If b3, Qc3. If c4, Qd4. If h6, Qxh6.

@moonchild23580 Men don't naturally communicate with hints or indirect language. We have to learn how to spot hints and even then half the time we are clueless when it comes to hints from the opposite sex. If you want to communicate effectively with a man, the more direct the better.

@Ravenismeee Because we learn very early on that showing vulnerability outside of a select trusted few (if any) is liable to get us sucker punched in that exact spot. Sometimes it is the women in our lives trying to win an argument, sometimes it's other men who make a joke at our expense.

@AdrianaVeterin It's called orbital slingshot, or gravity assist. https://t.co/V5fNZEFuvF

@DoorDash and the auto-resolution offers even less than it did the first time. Seriously, you guys suck.

[Eric Johnston @Nerd_Rocker]

@DoorDash Your policies on how to treat someone when something goes wrong is making me rethink using you at all. My food order goes wrong, I try to get help and support doesn't work. The auto-resolution is pennies on the dollar. I go back to resubmit again later...

[Eric Johnston @Nerd_Rocker]

@DoorDash_Help Your web chat support isn't working.

@DistantCoder Take the judge tests if you want to dive deep into MTG rulings.
