Well, let's see where this goes. I'm honestly not sure how this is going to turn out.

Isn't this very hard to visualize and hence strategise?

That's what the ASCII chess board is for! If it's not lining up correctly, then try copying and pasting into Notepad or Wordpad or something, but mainly you have to use a font with equal widths for all characters (e.g. Courier, Courier New).
To be honest, the small difference between lowercase and uppercase P's is throwing me off a little. I keep thinking Gfich's pawns are mine.

Gosh, I have no freaking clue. I'm doubting between a6 and Nf6...

Don't sweat it too much. Remember, it's not a league game, only a friendly.

does anyone have a good chess app that lets you play with gc friends?
