Chess for Everyone Else!
 

As suggested by Karesh, this is the thread for the game for everyone else. The rules are as follows:

Everyone is playing, and just post and make a move, whenever you want. You can't make a move in response to your own move. You get the point value of the piece when you take a piece.

You can play both sides of the board, as long as you do not immediately respond to your own move.

Whoever has the highest score when a king gets checkmated wins.

Edit: Also, each move you make nets you one half point, so that people are incentivized to move.

I'll keep track of score. I took out the clause about losing points, because it seems like it will lead to infinite delays.
