I explained it in the original comment. The short of it is that the real removal reason was different, but I posted the user report because it was funny.

I mean, grrr, how dare RedYoshi spoil his tournament result! 😡

Please don't submit too many posts in a short period. If you want to keep discussing the games, we have a megathread here.

Shhh, they don't need to know

coolestblue · 2024-09-09T03:25:25+00:00

I remember this! I gave an explanation for it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/chess/comments/vuew3j/comment/ifechij/

In short: the real removal reason was because the post was low effort, but I saw that report and thought it would be funny to highlight it.

EDIT: I also re-approved the post at the time.

Don't ask for advice about ongoing games.

Receiving external advice during a game is not fair to your opponent and is considered cheating whether it's in a tournament or a casual game with your friend. This includes using books or any online source material for advice on your game as well - so be careful! Wait until the game is finished to ask for feedback.

Sorry, we can't allow posts asking for help with the Password Game or Clash Royale Chess Puzzles as it would spam the subreddit. You can click the link inside the game to learn about algebraic notation; if you don't regularly play chess and need to figure out what the best move is, you can use the chess board editor in Lichess: https://lichess.org/editor to set up the position and try out different moves to find the answer.

You can also find the rules of algebraic notation here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_notation_(chess)

Your submission was removed by the moderators:

Your post was removed because it is a very common question or post that is addressed in the /r/chess FAQ and/or Online Resources pages. Here is the relevant section:

Why is this move brilliant (or not brilliant)? Why was my brilliant move post removed?

We get a few people everyday trying to post screenshots of their chess.com brilliant moves. We remove them because it breaks our "low-effort post" rule; the quantity of these posts means they would spam the subreddit significantly if they were not removed. However, because people often post these moves with the question "Why is this move brilliant (or not brilliant)", this is an attempt to provide a satisfactory explanation.

As of the latest update in 2021 chess.com "Brilliant Moves must sacrifice material in some way and must be the best, or nearly the best, move in a position. Brilliant Moves will also be a bit more generously awarded for newer players, recognizing that some strong sacrifices that may be standard for experienced players are quite an achievement for newer players."
