- pakratt0013, on 10/14/2008, -68/+279The Republican board should be all the all the other pieces vs. all the pawns.

Some of us like to go through a comic's archives and such. Plus, this comic has one of those xkcd-style titles. - laserdog, on 10/14/2008, -8/+140Libertarian chess is where you play chess with someone who constantly complains that checkers is a better theoretical game because it has less rules.

As long as they aren't harming any other pieces. - atezun, on 10/14/2008, -3/+92It doesn't matter, it's purely to thin the herd so the survivors have enough to eat.

No, that's Stalinist chess. Marxist chess doesn't exist except in an impossible ideal. - chadsmith729, on 10/14/2008, -2/+33Paddle faster, I hear Banjos

Paul '08 - tortov, on 10/14/2008, -1/+25It's not about the Republican Party in the US. It's about republicanism in general. Definitions of "republic" vary, but the one thing a republic definitely isn't is a monarchy.

I've given up on the black/white tiles since they don't show up as colors for me, just 4 letters in a box that are too small to read.
Also, screencapping this and submitting it to digg would be lame (even compared to playing chess in the comments section), let's continue the fun. - carlosos, on 10/14/2008, -4/+25It works for me with Firefox 3
