Hello all, how are you all doing? Been a weird week for me. Might be getting some snow today here. It's too soon to give winter a head start. I want my fall to be longer. It seems fall just started!!

Well it's challenge time again, fun fun!! I was willing to give this idea to another author. After this little blurb, I'll cover a little bit about the real game of chess. Than I will give you my Read dot Cash touch on it followed by the rules. Then it's game time!!

I was actually ready to give this idea to someone else but they decided they didn't want it. They don't know anything about it, not even the title. I did have my whole idea typed out and ready to send, but than erased it all once they told me they would follow suit accepting whatever challenge I come up with. This user did tell me I'm the king of challenges. It's kind of ironic because I will be the King 👑 piece on the chess board 🤣 but I don't believe I'm the king of challenges.

Real Chess

The game of chess contains 32 pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two bishops, two knights, and eight pawns on each side of the board. Each chess piece moves in a specific way. Each player makes one move at a time and must play every move. The main objective between 2 players is to see who can capture the other's king first. The winner gets the satisfaction of saying, "Check Mate"

My Read Chess Challenge Touch

What I'm about to do with this challenge is my idea. You can follow or make your selections however you see fit. For my queen I'm going to select someone I can relate to. The rest of the pieces will based off of the pieces moves, looks, and names. I will not use the pawns, I'll think of them as the community as a whole. I will only mention one person for both pieces. I'll ask each mention (except queen) who they feel can fulfill the same duties they have been assigned to on the board.

Read Chess Challenge Rules

  • Hyperlink my article in yours

  • Mention me in your article

  • Include yourself and be the king or queen

  • Mention one king or queen

  • Mention 1 or 2 rooks, knights, and bishops and tell why you have selected them

Well as the king I'm only as good as those I surround myself with. The king can only move 1 spot at a time but in all directions. Have I chose them wisely to prevent from being captured? I'm the host so let's get this into motion.

Queen

The queen is the most powerful piece on the chess board. This piece can move unlimited spaces in any direction. This person has really caught my attention recently. She is someone I can relate to from reading some of her articles. I give you a beautiful crown filled with jewels only meant for a queen @alicecalope Stand by my side and let's rule our kingdom together. Oh wait I mean board 🤣😂🤣

Rook

The rook might be considered the second strongest piece on the board. This piece can move vertically or horizontally as many spaces as it wants. Starting the game the rook is located on the corners of the board. This user is like the rook because he is much like one of the corners of this platform. How many of you new members have seen him in your first article giving you advice? Full of so much knowledge and information, united we shall be @Unity

Who would you like to be the other rook?

Bishop

The bishop is kind of a surprise piece. It moves along the board with unlimited spaces in only a diagonal manner. A bishop is a high priest of God. The user I select has qualities of a bishop. She is big time believer in God's will and plan. She lives by the following creed, "No matter the struggles one might encounter there is always something to look forward to because blessings will come." A very positive person who will never give up. @maria_23 let you and your family be blessed.

Who would you like to be the other Bishop?

Knight

The knight can be tricky piece in chess. This is the only piece that can jump over all other pieces. The night has two moves. One is two horizontal moves with 1 vertical move. The other is two vertical moves with one horizontal move. This user is new to me but has a good personality. A Knight with a horse can leap place to place and cover lots of area. I have noticed she has traveled well all around Europe. I have noticed as well she travels around here well visiting many users I consider as friends. She has also recently sponsored me. Thank you @fantagira

Who would you like to be the other Knight?

Mentioned Users

Please comment below with who you would like to be your identical piece (Read User). I will also give you my basic fee for using you in my challenge. I'll also give your mentioned user half of me fee if the comment.

Final Thoughts

I know I got some quality people behind these pieces. I hope you all enjoyed and hope I get the opportunity to see your version of this challenge.

Take care and be safe. I love you all ❤️

Hey, hey Mr! Sorry for the late reply. I have been super busy with my travels and coming back to reality. Nice to be your The Knight in a game. I have no idea how to play chess! But if I have to pick another horse, it will be my new read.cash mate - @flapiz . She also has been travelling and living abroad like me. I'm sure she'll be a great Knight to accompany me on this mission :)

I don't know much about chess, they said that a knight is only an equivalent of a pawn in a game. But, if I can relate in it real life. I want to be knight so I can protect myself without depending to others🤪

Hehe you would a good knight. But no the knight is much more powerful than a pawn. A pawn can move up to two spaces forward on it's first move. After that just one space forward and can only capture another piece on one move diagonally
