Can someone tell me what happened here ????

If you get your pawn to the end of the board, you can turn it into any other type except a King.

I really want chocolate right now, but I don't have any chocolate, and I'm not going to the shops again today. Anyone feel me?

ME!!!

And yeah, I know you can turn a pawn into a queen. But what I don't know is how to turn every pawn you own into a queen, without checkmating the opposition's King... :o :o

i feel like possibly if you congregated all the queens into one corner and blocked them with the king, you /might/ be able to do it? but that would be super difficult considering their king needs to move as well ??? congrats on breaking chess ahaha.

Bit bloody rich for Metro to implore me to "have a most enjoyable day traveling on one of our fantastic trains" when said train was delayed, completely packed, and then re-routed entirely to the point it didn't even stop at my desired station.

Ho hum.

P.S. This was due to "an issue".

Thanks! 😂
Update: the metro guy (who 100% looks like one of my friends) at my station is too cheerful... and there is apparently "minor" delays. 😂

minor in Metro terms means major.

I will never forget the one time the train left Flinders Street and then stopped in between Flinders & Southern Cross... then just sat there for a good 90 mins while the ops tried to figure out what the heck to do (since the loop tunnel was flooded or something). At least I won't have to put up with that anymore :P
