Yeah, I know. :(
Most of us seem to be in North America though.
I shall schedule one for a good UK time though, count on it.
Even if it only has a few people. Hoping to get more people though. ^_^

What side?

Usually the left column of moves means white. It's labelled anyway. As for g4 and h4, those correspond to squares on the board. I believe the block a1 is white's leftmost rook.

A capital letter before the block indicates the piece, as follows: B- Bishop, N - Knight, R - Rook, Q- Queen, K - King. Pawns do not get a letter because they're not considered pieces.

So a2-a4 would indicate the pawn on the a column moved up two ranks. a2xBb3 would mean the pawn at a2 captured a bishop at a3. There's other notation too. I think something like Qe3xBe8 + means indicates check. The plus sign, that is. Checkmate might be ++. Also, castling kingside is 0-0 and queenside is 0-0-0.

On Pogo, the move history is at the left of your board, and can be hidden or shrunk.

More (and probably better) information: http://www.logicalchess.com/info/reference/notation/

In the Pogo "Social" thing, there's a usually empty room called Tournament 1. If we can't get that there's always emptyish rooms around.

I said 7pm NG time, so it's about an hour away.

Forcing a stalemate is sometimes more satisfying than winning. >:D

It's hard to organize things when your internet router gets ripped out of the wall and smashed on the ground by you insane father. ^_^

I'll post a more detailed account of the events following my leave of the chess game sometime this afternoon in General.

I apologize Hycran, didn't mean to keep you waiting like that.
