jbrains, I draw a circle sqrt(5) units in radius, then pick a target square based on whether that circle goes through the exact center of the square.
LoamImprovement, Am I the only one who “jumps” the horse over the squares, even if there’s nothing there, and makes horse noises? Or like when I capture, I do the goring noises as the horse tramples the other piece underfoot?

Magnetar, Thank you.
AccountMaker, When my dad and grandpa were teaching me how to play chess, they told me that the knight moves in a “G” pattern. I could not for the life of me figure out how a G maps to what they showed me, so I figured out that it goes one diagonal, and then eitger one up if the diagonal was up, one down if it was down and the same reasoning for left and right. That’s still how I visualize it.
Years later I realized that they meant the cyrillic G, which looks like this: Γ…
Amatsumara, That’s hilarious 😂
kn33, Ha. They got you. My dad taught that it’s 2 spots in one (cardinal) direction, then 1 spot in another direction (demonstrating that the other direction has to be 90° to the original direction).
