That is really tricky, however i think much easier than the last one i posted.

White to move, find the best move.

p.s. To everyone that uses the link I gave to generate diagrams, there is an option "large" :)

You seem to be having difficulties to understand the concept.

When i write best move for black wanted, I obviously mean black is to move.

Again then:



Find the best move for black. And yes, black is to move first.
And no, there is not a piece too many.

@pooh: Qc2.

Push the clock button to make white's timecount start?

The main variation will be that white moves a chess piece on the board and pushes his own clock button. After that, black is to reciprocate. Failing to push the clock button will result in a loss by time.

If white doesn't push the clock button after his move, black should just sit at the table, seem like he's thinking hard, and do nothing until white's time runs out.

For me it looks like the game didn't even started. Because it's internetchess, several pretty things (closing door until forfeit, turning around chessboard) don't seem to work for Black for to win over White or at least to get few advantages, if there's a White, which probably don't know it is White :-)

First move: Black has to find someone playing as White. ??

What if the game had played out with only knights so far, and white managed to lose a tempo somewhere, then they all went back to their home squares and its blacks turn? That is the only thing that could have happened. So the best move would be e5.
