      Many call Big Brother one big game of chess, so now the six people picked to play will partake in a competition called "Knight Moves." This entire competition will be played on one large chessboard. The six of you will take turns moving on this chessboard like the knight moves in chess. You will reply with the space you are going to [A4, B2, C7, etc] Knights move in an L-shape. You can move: two spaces straight in either direction and one space to the right two spaces straight in either direction and one space to the left one space straight in either direction and two spaces to the right one space straight in either direction and two spaces to the left Here's an example of a few moves you can make:  Once someone has landed on a space, that space will be removed for the rest of the competition. After everyone has made their move, the chess board will be updated and we'll start a new round in which everyone will take turns again. When you have run out of moves on the cheesboard, you are eliminated from the competition. Here's an example:  In this situation, Drew is out of spaces. Everywhere that he can move has been removed from the competition. Therefore, he would be eliminated. The competition will go until everyone has been eliminated and we are left with one person standing, who will win this week's Power of Veto competition! Good luck! This competition is played live, so it's imperative that everyone keep up with the competition. Right now, we will begin with a fresh, clean board with no spaces removed. Each houseguest will start their turn by picking any space on the board (number, letter) as your starting position . Here's the board we'll be using for this competition. Feel free to keep track of the competition on your own before we update it ourselves.  The order will be determined by the order in which you pick your space, and will stay the same through the entire competition. The competition begins NOW! So step onto the board and call out your space from 1-8, A-H in your DR or PM. |

Angie - 1st move
Jeff - 2nd move
Memphis - 3rd move
Jerry - 4th move
Michele - 5th move
Russell - 6th move
Don't post in here by the way, post in your DR or PM me. Once first moves are made, the rest will be done in here publicly.
Edit: Please list 2 spots in the future just incase you pick the same as someone else.

Ok, this is taking way too long. And since we already started, I don't want to just start a new competition either so he's a non-live alternate.
You're going to use the board above to make several moves in one post. In your DR, list a string of moves you can do until you can move no more. Basically pretend that you're the only one playing. You obviously can't land on someone else's starting points and you can't land on spaces you yourself have landed on through your string of moves. Feel free to use a paint program to help keep track of the moves you're making.
Once everyone has their lists ready, I'll do the competition off your lists and the person who can go the furthest in their list without having a conflict will win the Power of Veto.
Readysetgo. |

I'll give her until later today cause I don't feel like doing results this early. If anyone wants to make an alternative list in the case that Angie is a no-show, you're free to do that. As I know many of you probably made moves based off how you predicted others would. |

I thought the premise of the competition was the be able to make as many moves as possible as if we were the only ones playing...
