| Jul 14, 2015 at 17:24 | comment | added | Bailey M | Perfect. The answer I was looking for is '35461', because it puts the opponent in an unwinnable position. The rest of the game is relatively unnecessary, but I can't fault you for providing it as well. Well done! | |

| Jul 14, 2015 at 16:02 | comment | added | GettnDer | The values give perfect 4 digit numbers in Hex, which leads me to believe that's the right number base. I don't think chess can be interpreted this way though. > 808c 8045 768f 808e 8068 8068 7648 7692 7646 806a 3987 7626 7626 8046 7cf8 39af 801f 7cf8 393e 764b 80b0 39d2 808d 808d 766c 80b0 7692 7692 8ad0 8ab0 8ad2 80b2 85e4 6764 391b 8aaf 3a1b 8532 67a5 6740 | |

| Jul 14, 2015 at 15:43 | comment | added | Bailey M | No problem! I realize I might have made this puzzle too difficult, but I'm eager for it to be solved because I rather like the solution. :) Hopefully I can help someone get there soon. EDIT: Hey, looks like you made the first jump! Well done. | |

| Jul 14, 2015 at 15:27 | comment | added | Bailey M | You're correct that my friend needs to input a game config unwinnable by the computer, but you've gone the wrong direction in terms of base conversion. | |
