chess patch notes

[ursula]

I browsed through MetaFilter Projects the other day and discovered Chess Patch Notes, a guide to historical changes in the rules of the game of chess, described as if they were updates to a massively multiplayer online game. For example:

We wanted to speed up the early game and make sure players can get right into the action, so we're buffing the early game Pawn.

Buff: Pawns can now move two spaces forward if they have not yet moved.

I think we can assume those sorts of egregious trolls don't merit shout-outs in the official patch notes!

They did mention the trolls who think introducing a strong female character is SJW-dom! XD

That's because Social Justice Warrior Queens are awesome :)
