Edit: forgot the "1. d2-d4 / K b8-c6"

1. d2-d4 / Nb8-c6
2. e2-e4 /

There's normally no blank between the piece letter and the first field. Also, the knight is normally abbreviated "N", as "K" is the king. Last, please excuse if I accidentally use the German abbreviations

1. d2-d4 / Nb8-c6
2. e2-e4 / e7-e6

Okay, I think I got it. (goggles a list of abbreviations and the German ones as well)

*watches carefully*

1. d2-d4 / Nb8-c6

3. c2-c4 (!?) /

1. d2-d4 / Nb8-c6
2. e2-e4 / e7-e6
3. c2-c4 (!?) / Bf8-b4

Check.

what are the rules for comments?

1. d2-d4 / Nb8-c6
2. e2-e4 / e7-e6
3. c2-c4 (!?) / Bf8-b4+
4. Bc1-d2 /

A check is normally denoted by a +

Generally nothing that could influence the game in it's current state. Anything else is fine

1. d2-d4 / Nb8-c6
2. e2-e4 / e7-e6
3. c2-c4 (!?) / Bf8-b4+
4. Bc1-d2 / Qd8-h4

Understood. Sorry I will probably make a few mistakes like that. Also what does the (!?) mean?

So

So something like Blacks move threatens three pawns would be ok?

! indicates a good move, ? a bad move; !?, consequently, a two-edged move (?! technically does the same, but !? is perceived to be a little "better" than ?!). I use brackets here because, after all, the game is not finished yet, so a complete analysis is not possible.



@ sstimson:
No, because I might have failed to realize that, for example, f2 is under attack, and so you might have helped me. However, for example, suggesting that 3. c3 might have been better is alright, because I can't go back anyway.

This makes me want to play.

I'll probably start once this is finished.
