Which one... Grayscale or Color? I know that the focus is off on the person, Gotta Work on that for my next project. Got the idea from Berty through Fishers suggestion!
(Ignore the fact that this scenario is, I think, impossible. Ask me if I care :D)
It was like David and Goliath; I hadn't played chess since I was four, and he was the one who taught me how to play. Making it perfectly clear that if he let me win that I would have to kill him, the game began... as did my subsequent butt-whooping. With two pieces left, a bishop and my king, I made one last ditch attempt at his king that I knew could only fail. "Check." And then the phone rang, pulling him into a thirty-minute conversation with his mother. Finally, his last move, which should have been one to take out my bishop. Instead, he moved some random piece moving for my king on the other side of the board. "Umm... end game?" Accusing me of never saying check, using his mother as a distraction, and finally congratulating me, I'm still certain that somehow my padre still weaseled his way into letting me win.
