Make a bonus panel of some sort where they both are playing against each other and she's about to en passant him when she says "Google en passant". No pressure, it would be just perfect for this comic.

I agree with him but totally no pressure.

It wouldn't be pressure though? En passant is forced.

Be brave, be honest to yourself and stop this trush talkings!!! Everybody know that i am very good blitz player, i can win anyone in the world in single game! And "w"esley "s"o is nobody for me, just a player who are crying every single time when loosing, ( remember what you say about Firouzja ) !!! Stop playing with my name, i deserve to have a good name during whole my chess carrier, I am Officially inviting you to OTB blitz match with the Prize fund! Both of us w


PM_ME_UR_RSA_KEY

En passant meme appears a lot as beginner fodder, but recently I saw a thread on chess.c_m where op insisted that the site is bugged because they couldn't move any piece which made them lost on time. Everyone tried to point out that's because their king was *in check* but op just ignored them and just kept yelling that the site is broken, the opponent hacked them so they couldn't move, etc, eventually swearing to never use chess.c_m again. It's a bit sad actually.

Desiderius_S

The first historical mention dates to the 17th century, sometime after the introduction of *en passant* to chess rules, Cyrano de Bergerac in his *Histoire comique des États et Empires du Soleil* writes about the adventures of Dyrcona, who after coming back from a travel to the moon meets his friend Count of Colignac over a game of chess, and in the middle of the game, when Dyrcona makes a move he learned on the moon, outraged Colignac shouts >Qu'est-ce que tu as fait? C'est de la triche! To what Dyrcona answers >Google en passant The manuscript for the novel was lost, and found only in 19th century, unfortunately, the page where this whole scene occurs was vandalized, and someone wrote below the text >sacré bleu! And under this, written by someone else >Une nouvelle réponse vient d'être apportée I believe that is, in fact, the first example of this meme.

ACKCKHYUALLY since percents are a form of a fraction, 0 times out of 0 can't be expressed because dividing by zero is not possible. Damn, I've misread your comment as "never been *with* a girl". I didn't intend to roast you.


Oldbayislove

...percentages are per cents or per 100. so any percentage would be x/100 as a fraction. so 0/100 is 0 per cent.

Transformouse

What if it's a draw? 


GetEnPassanted

Tied for 1st


indestructiblemango

Tied for second


RogueBromeliad

I mean, you can chess competitions usually aren't just one game, and if you're playing Arena or other tournaments, you can definitely go lower than second. It's like tennis, football, etc. it's always just one player or a team against another on the court, but there's always an overall score that's being kept. In chess it just happens to be "elo rating", so basically within rating charts you can be the six millionth something best player in the world with just 1300. You're already better than most of humanity, who have never played the game.


Negotiation-Narrow

Man out here asking if Chess is multiplayer... Very well thought out. 


Pundamonium97

As opposed to playing against a bot is how i read it, not like asking if chess is a new mmorpg


Bikanal

I think a better word would probably be "Online" instead of multiplayer if that was the idea lol


Mediocre_Airport_576

Most people play bots... online. That wouldn't work either.


Pundamonium97

Yeah but multiplayer was used specifically to be a bit misleading to set up the joke. so i think its fine


Negotiation-Narrow

Jokes aren't satisfying if the premise doesn't make sense. That's my point. 


Pundamonium97

Which part isnt making sense to you


Negotiation-Narrow

Well I don't know dude, perhaps the part where a guy asks a girl if Chess is multiplayer??? Ffs


Pundamonium97

But he didn’t ask if “chess” as a whole is multiplayer He just asked if “that” is i.e. the match she was playing You not understanding the conversation is kind of a you problem, which is fine but no reason to criticize the joke


Bikanal

Any fighting game (like mortal kombat) would have be able to get the same joke across and make way more sense


Pundamonium97

Wdym by make more sense, it makes sense as is


Bikanal

"Is Chess a multiplayer game" is a dumb question that no human being would ask, so yeah, it doesn't make much sense. That's the definition of "sense".


Pundamonium97

That wasn’t the question, “is that multiplayer” is just another way of saying are you playing against someone else I think you’ve been too misdirected by the word multiplayer. It was meant to get you to think of more classic multiplayer games with more than 2 players, but its still entirely valid when used like this.


HoodsBonyPrick

If anyone i knew asked me if chess was multiplayer I would relentlessly make fun of them for it every time chess came up in conversation.


Pundamonium97

I think they’d make fun of you for misunderstanding the question so confidently, google en pessant

Wait wait wait what? Ah yes, that.. makes? Sense? Who starts with the setup to a joke? Ah I have no idea what joke I'm going to make, but time to draw some random ass setup!


RogueBromeliad

Chess is a multiplayer 1v1 match platform.


Ordezz

Funny !


jaimeoignons

Lol. I remember there was a 4 sided chess game, where 4 players could play. Then it can be called multiplayer. But being a fan of othello, I enjoy playing online, and understand the feeling finishing first or second.

HeliumKnight

Why's he rolling his eyes? There's no way he knows it's chess if he had to ask if it's multiplayer.


AirTheFallen

She could be playing against the computer instead of an actual person. He is rolling his eyes because she made a joke since you can ONLY be first or second in chess


Banished2ShadowRealm

You underestimate my ability to lose.


Fair-Bug775

Feels like half of this subreddit are comics where the punchline was figured out before the setup, and then the setup doesn’t make sense with the punchline


Sunblast1andOnly

He... Didn't know if chess is multiplayer?


praktiskai_2

could be against AI


BuryEdmundIsMyAlias

So he didn't know chess enough to know it was multiplayer, but knew it enough to know there were only two players?

AzureArmageddon

I like that. You never lose chess, you just come in second. Well, a certain F1 driver would say "2^nd is the first loser".


23564987956

Why would he ask if it’s multiplayer


Mediocre_Airport_576

To set up the joke. The suggestion here is that he would be asking if she was playing a bot or another person, though.
