Is this a French opening ?

[–] RandomVideos@programming.dev 14 points 1 month ago

That is the French finale

I dunno the resulting balls are a bit too heavy for tennis.

I always thought the French opening was the Trou-de-cul.

Mate in two moves.

[–] AbnormalHumanBeing@lemmy.abnormalbeings.space 18 points 1 month ago

In two moves? I mean, ok, I guess, but I'd prefer to be taken out to dinner first at least.

Too many rooks on the dance floor.

First we got rid of the king and queen, then the knights had no one to serve, the bishops lost there power over the populace, and then all that remained was the pawns and a bunch of empty castles.

Turned out the castles, or burges, are not that empty and don't need a king to serve.

Would is not make even more sense of the board was flipped? The pawn on g1 technically can be taken by the king.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 month ago

Is that the royal en passant? In which the king is allowed to move two spaces (and through check)?

[–] j4k3@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

ah yes, the French Sweet 16
