Update / Jan. 3, 2023:
Rules:
- All ties will be resolved by the earliest received submission, so send in your answers as soon as you know them. But try to be as accurate as possible—it usually takes close to a perfect score to win.
- Answers will be accepted until 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time on Monday, January 2, 2023. Note that only a member's first submission will be considered.
- Spelling counts. The quiz is scored automatically by Google Forms, so make sure you spell your responses correctly. For player names, write the first and last name only, and in that order. In proper nouns such as names, use a capital letter as the first letter. Do not use any accent marks or titles (GM, IM, etc.). For chess moves, use simple algebraic notation without a move number (e.g.: Nf3).
- You are allowed to use any resources at your disposal to get the answers: engines, web searches, comment sections, phone-a-friend, etc.
- Provide your valid Chess.com username and an e-mail for your answer receipt in the form.
Prizes:
- 1st-3rd place: One year of Chess.com Diamond membership
- 4th-10th place: One year of Chess.com Platinum membership
- 11th-20th place: One year of Chess.com Gold membership
