@BionicD0LPH1N was puzzling why this wasn’t counted. First I noticed they sold off their shares, but checked the times and saw they sold a minute after this market was resolved, so thought maybe an asynchronous time-stamping thing? After realizing that didn’t make much sense, came back here to double check the results, the script output, and the comment, and that’s when I saw the command capitalization was wrong. Unfortunate, but glad 10 shares wouldn’t have made a difference. Too bad they’re now on the short side, but hope this issue isn’t the reason.

@deagol Oh shoot sorry, I didn’t pay much attention to how this worked. After I realized what move ended up going through (a really terrible move btw, whoever voted for that shame on you), I went to get a bit of money from the other market.

Next time I’ll know to capitalize everything, but imo the script should not look at capitalization. Sorry again for this!

@BionicD0LPH1N Oh wait might be wrong on the chess part, I’m bad don’t listen to me

@BionicD0LPH1N I do hope @citrinitas can tweak the script. But hey that’s my move! And it’s the best among these, takes out the pesky fianchetto and now we can go for the jugular. Check your engine again. ;)

I agree with the diagnosis. Sure, I can ignore caps

!VOTE e4

Making this a proper horserace since we (kinda) have a proper racebook now.

@harfe excellent! as I mentioned last move our knight’s a monster in g5

Calling all shareholders particularly our Most Supreme Leader, don’t let the shills and shorts in dark pools tank our stock with nonsense moves. This is best for all. Vote early!

Yo @Botlab @JoshuaB @harfe @3DS @AlexLiesman @A @EmilSlipsagerHedegaard @Fion @OperationIvy85 @BionicD0LPH1N your shares could tank if you don’t get counted. Don’t think this is spam as I’m not asking for money, just informing you of your shareholder rights here and the risk you take by not exercising them.

@deagol !VOTE Nc6

Thanks for the ping/call to action :-)

@JoshuaB 👍 shorts gonna burn

Is it "O-O" or "0-0"? Lichess looks like "O" but someone who actually plays chess was voting "0" earlier

@citrinitas FIDE uses zeroes (see Laws of Chess, Appendix C.13), but PGN does O’s. From the PGN Standard, section 8.2.3.3:

“The use of a zero character is not only incompatible with traditional text practices, but it can also confuse parsing algorithms which also have to understand about move numbers and game termination markers. Also note that the use of the letter "O" is consistent with the practice of having all chess move symbols start with a letter; also, it follows the convention that all non-pwn move symbols start with an upper case letter.”

Another difference I see is pawn promotion, for which PGN adds an equal sign (=) e.g. FIDE is c8Q while PGN does c8=Q.
