Hi folks, I am writing a short fiction, and I came upon the idea to use chess as a medium of communication. Is it possible? I mean, if a person uses an entire chess game to represent a paragraph? I imagine one side of the game is not enough to express the english language as there aren't enough initial moves in the game. But both sides together could do the job?
Using normal chess pieces? ....<p>1)<p>umm I mean you do have an 8x8 grid (8 bits each row) and you could have pieces make up bits being on or off and make a 8 letter phrase (each row being it's own letter).<p>(Ascii Wikipedia for your reference - <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII#ASCII_printable_code_chart" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII#ASCII_printable_code_cha...</a>)<p>2)<p>Maybe you could also do something like the Where Am I Game?<p>example:<p>I stay one night in Denver;
four nights in San Francisco;
And one night in Washington DC;<p>Where am I?<p>1 Denver = D
4 SanFrancisco = F
1 WashingtonDC = W<p>(DFW) -> Dallas<p>So you could do something like playing a chess game and for every attempted move (like player 1 moves a Rook but keeps his hand on it and taps the board thinking about the move and then places it down means the letter 'o').<p>3)<p>There was also a movie with Bruce Willis (or The Rock Johnson. I always get them confused). Where the main guy tries to escape from a space prison. There was one scene where they communicated over a chess game by only talking when there hand was on the queen. Any word spoken while on the queen was then concatenated to a sentance to convey what they were really talking about.
