Hey guys! 
 
I thought it would be a good idea to make a thread dedicated to playing live chess on this forum. Just simple knowledge of chess notation is needed! Here is an example of the notation system. I will make the first move with obviously white and the next person to reply moves with black and so on until the game ends and the process repeats.

 Lets have fun! An example would be: (in order of posting)
 
The first poster (me) would put 1) e4
 
(the following reply would be black) e5
 
and the next person playing white would have to add the 2) Nf3 and so on.
 
That way it will be organized and easy to follow. Also lets make the moves in bold so they can be easily distinguished. 
 

 
Here is an example of the board just in case there are some new comers and for reference. 
 

 

 
If there are any questions or suggestions to make things run smoothly lets hear them! Here we go! good luck 
 
Lets get it started.
 
1) e4

To make things a bit easier to visualize I will do my best to post pictures of the position, or if anybody else feels like it that would be great as well

. Here is the link to the site I used below and simply took a screenshot.

Here is the position after the first move e4
 

 
I think it would be best and easiest to follow if the next poster would notate the position and then upload the picture (screenshot) of the position using the link above. That way later in the games we will all be on the same page and there will be no confusion.
