@@JJ_R True, but since the opponent didn't see the mate before, there's a chance he wouldn't have seen it the second time either. Anyway even if the rooks were exchanged, white would have easily won anyway.
Are you sure you calibrated stockfish correctly? I ran it myself and it was very upset at the last move, it considered the rook to have fainted due to the smell. Make sure to set the stinkiness factor to sufficiently high.
The way I see it, your pieces have a sense of responsibility that goes above their likes and dislikes. Yes, they dislike the smell, but that mate in one is a sense of duty. They do what they do best which I think is above the ruleset, and thus, this was a perfect game.
@@noobatredstone3001 arguably, you can believe moving from the same distance but enabling someone to move further away is still further. For example someone moving closer to door could be considered further. Again, thank you. That's literally my point, it's how you define things :)

1) Chess, but old-school: a queen moves only one square diagonally, bishops only exactly two squares diagonally, pawns cannot move two squares initially, no castling and pawns can only promote to queens subject to the same restrictions as the original queen. 2) Chess, but the set of fields on which all your pieces lie must be connected (let's say that diagonals count). 3) Chess, but your pawns and pieces cannot take towards the center, i.e. when capturing, their final position, in comparison with their initial position, cannot be closer to the imaginary vertical line dividing the board into two equal parts. 4) Chess, but every third move has to be a backward move. 5) Chess, but your major pieces also function like a king, i.e. if in 'check', the check must be prevented, otherwise game over. 6) Chess, but the king only prefers his initial company, i.e. cannot be adjacent to any other pieces but your queen, your light-squared bishop and the three pawns originally next to him. 7) Chess, but if a piece or pawn falls, another piece or pawn must try to commit suicide and offer itself up to be taken in an unguarded position on the next move. (The rule of course doesn't apply to a piece/pawn that tried to commit suicide.) 8) Chess, but the pawns are holding hands, forming a chain of mutually adjacent pawns (diagonals count) that cannot be broken. 9) Chess, but the pawns hate each other and it is thus illegal to move a pawn into a position where it is adjacent to another one of your pawns. 10) Chess, but you must capture pieces/pawns in order of value: pawns, knights, bishops, rooks, queen. In other words, it is illegal to capture a pawn/piece if a higher ranking piece has already been captured.
Using the taxicab distance would make for more of a challenge, and maybe be a bit more intuitive Distance(a,b) = horizontal distance + vertical distance = number of squares between two positions
lmao did you have to use pythagoras theorem during the game over and over again? thinking about how you would frantically write down all the math on paper while playing chess makes me laugh
All of those distance comparisons were common sense though. I think using pythagoras was for humour and/or to pre-empt any commenters who lack common sense
There are very few non-obvious distance differences. And you don't actually have to sqrt in your head, because you know that all the numbers are positive, in which case a^2>b^2 implies a>b.
I envisioned it like a circle with the king in the center and the pawns/pieces on the rim. If the pieces go to a location that has a smaller radius to the circle, then it would be moving closer. Without doing math, it is not hard to see, however it was admirable to see that he actually did the math
He wouldn't need to calculate the actual distance while playing. He just needs to recognize which distance is longer. Most of the time you can do that with a simple visual comparison. It only really becomes difficult to do for the longer distances. But in the absolute worst case scenario, he'd only need to add squared numbers together in his head. And they'd most likely be small-ish numbers anyways (like comparing 8^2 + 2^2 to 9^2 + 1^2 to see which is bigger). No square rooting is ever necessary.
At 2:41, you could play knight c3 instead a3. It would still be futher cause it would go from 3 to sqrt(13) = 3.61, which would block the rook for capturing the pawn.
Following the rules all the way up until mate and only breaking the rule to deliver mate in 1 is a perfectly reasonable exception and should just be treated as a "special" completion.
Because a checkmate ends the game, I think it counts as a successful end to the challenge. In other words, saying that the challenge rule is there only to hamper your effort to getting checkmate.
Could also be made harder if no square of the pieces "journey" can be closer to the king then the one before (that would make the bishop move at 3:37 illegal)
U can move the king closer which allows your pieces to recalculate distance thus move again. Like the last move you could have moved the king closer to the rook then it could go for checkmate
Not only did he follow the rules, stockfish loved it and said 0 mistakes 0 blunders 0 missed wins
He didn't follow the rules though. He followed them mostly.

Bishop can take the rook. You are left with opposite color bishops but the king can move around to activate the rooks afterwards.

I’m not gonna lie, I find it a bit funny when you break the rule in the move that guarantees Checkmate in 1.
I want to see a chess but the king seeks glory and needs to have the most kills of all your pieces and pawns.
I love how you F the rules on the last move for the checkmate 😂
Well because he had to checkmate!

Using the taxicab distance would make for more of a challenge, and maybe be a bit more intuitive
Distance(a,b) = horizontal distance + vertical distance = number of squares between two positions
considering it's chess and related to the King, the Maximum aka King's Move Distance would probably be even more natural
the distance is just a triangle when you use square roots tho
smell doesn't move like a taxicab though
David just wanted to get the battle over so they could get the king a bath
4:50 just... move your king down left and deliver checkmate with next move
That's some advanced starting strategy, fool around with a horse while the opponent advances their position.
I suggested this a few weeks ago. I also suggested the opponent king smells good, so you must always move towards him.
That’s impossible
@@PeterParker-vi2nl Why? It's the opponent king.

1:28 appreciate the proper use of distance formula
5:12 The pawn at d6 is not David, but Edward.
Well spotted, but you need to work on time stamps
I love when they take the knight out and just run around with him
Chess but after your piece takes any of enemy pieces they get bad conscience. Meaning they must not capture ever again.
4:35 You could capture the rook with your bishop instead (Bxf8) and then move your king away to checkmate.
No just move your bishop back and it's mate. Bar no pawn moves
Mission kinda accomplished
At 2:41, you could play knight c3 instead a3. It would still be futher cause it would go from 3 to sqrt(13) = 3.61, which would block the rook for capturing the pawn.
Not if you consider all the pieces to be at the centre of the squares they are on. Then b1 is sqrt(9) away, a3 is sqrt(20) away, and c3 sqrt(8) away.
Before checkmating, you could’ve moved your king 1 square to the left, so the checkmate would be now following the rules
Yes , but would it be as funny or entertaining?
@@BroomieHERE ye
4:20 I was expecting David change his gender.

"the square root of 5 is bigger than 3, therefore, I'm still better than my viewers" 🤣😂😂
Scorched Earth chess: when your piece leaves a square, none of your pieces can return to that square.
Chess but your king is impatient and must move every other turn
The newly promoted rook just has to cover his nose and end it already so he can go home.
breaking the rule in the last turn is like taking off the training weights for a finisher, and is always allowed

Chess, but you always have to move a piece (or pawn) closest to your king. You can choose in case equal distance
That's pretty much impossible
@@trevas1047 True

The king is a piece. You cannot move the king further away from itself. Therefore, you cannot move the king.

The outro is worth watching
"Be4+. Very aggressive move, but it blunders a bishop" xD
Those trigonometry lessons are finallly coming in handy!
IMHO moving such that the distance is the same is just fine
again I think it's fair and would actually be a good rule that if a move causes checkmate it's allowed
Because a checkmate ends the game, I think it counts as a successful end to the challenge.
In other words, saying that the challenge rule is there only to hamper your effort to getting checkmate.

It makes them more interesting
clearly a paid actor
You could have just moved the bishop.
My heart breaks everytime it crosses my mind that that's not his real voice.
You just could have moved the king to the left at the End, recovering maneuverability of that top rook xD

on the end, you could move your king to d3, and probably chack mate him in the next turn without braking te rules
king d2 would indeed solve the problem.
king d3 however is not a legal move :)
oh yea, i go back in the video to write this coment and in the moment of video bishop wosen't alrady on b5, but thank you
> There's no wtf today?

I think that keeping a piece at the same distance from the king should be fine
Chess, but you think fish are stupid: You have to explain why stockfish is wrong about its assessment of every move.
The rook doesn't have a sense of smell anyway...
i think same distance should be allowed tho
finally someone found a real life use for math
Chess but pawns are the only piece that can take and you still can take pawns with your other pieces
Similar challange was already done
Title: "chess, but pawns matter most"
missed win for the challenge
Could also be made harder if no square of the pieces "journey" can be closer to the king then the one before (that would make the bishop move at 3:37 illegal)
I think the limitation on both rooks and bishops and probably even queen in such case would have made this challenge actually impossible.
you could have put ur king more to the left at the end
queen must be having a bad time
couldve taken the rook with the bishop at the end, because the opponent probably wouldnt have moved the pawn
Bro used the Pythagorean Theorem in the middle of a chess game 💀
You know he cares, beside he did the fucking math
Should've stuck his king in a corner to make it a bit easier, imo.
Couldn’t you have moved your king a square to the left?
Then the rook would be taken
at the end couldnt you have moved the king to the left
U can move the king closer which allows your pieces to recalculate distance thus move again. Like the last move you could have moved the king closer to the rook then it could go for checkmate
Chess, but your knights must switch places before you move any other pieces or pawns
you couldve moved the king closer to the rook so checkmating would be moving it away from the king
