The captcha seems very easy (I am not a chess player)- I tried three times and always got a board to solve in one move, so I doubt anyone that knows the rules of chess is going to be excluded. That's probably not a problem for this forum :)
- mich41 14y agoIt is easy. But it still filters out some kind of people you may not want on a chess forum :)
- Samuel_Michon 14y agoAgreed. I had never played chess in my life, but with the help of Wikipedia [1], I figured out which piece to move where. (I enjoy this mini chess, it's like a low tech version of Bejeweled. I don't have the patience for full fledged chess games, but just finding the last move is fun.)

- redblacktree 14y agoYou might enjoy chess puzzles then. They are usually of the form "[Color] to move. [X] moves to checkmate." Typically, where X > 1, the opponent's moves are forced by check. (i.e. the opponent generally only has one option if you're making the correct moves.)
