See my comment somewhere under this comment.
Actually, it was pretty well-made, except for the dumb AI ... takes a long time to move and in AI vs. AI, the calculator ended up repeating the same positions, over and over again. Worse, there was no way to get out of the game during an AI vs. AI match. So I had to remove my calculator's life support ...
Otherwise, a very well made game. Heh, poor 83/+/SE, only series (where a chess game would be worth it) left out of the chess club (assembly-wise, anyway) ...

Oh yeah! Well, my graph-link is, to qoute one of my friends, a "butt and a half", so I have exactly 2 programs, and one displays "I'm alive and you're not!! I'm BETTER THAN YOU!!!"
So, THERE!!!! I"< NRYYRT YJSM UPI@@@
to decode that, start at the less-than sign and move all of the characters, except space, one to the left on the keyboard, and retype it.
