Who wins?

Captures. The word you are looking for is captures.
>>
>>48089201
Probably chess guy since you can consume more plastic discs before you need to go to the hospital.
>>
>>48089247
Well, assuming you swallow them whole and they are not particularly large or overly decorated, even the whole set might be able to pass through your system harmlessly.
>>
My vote goes to chess
more flexible
>>
>>48089201
If you mean captures, then Chess wins by camping out the off-colour squares and ambushing Checkers with fast-moving pieces.

Not op but in my language capturing a piece is called eating that piece
>>
>>48089214
Eating is fine, that how we learned it in Hawaii many many years ago.

Makes sense to a kid.

English was a mistake.
>>
>>48089723
Ye better for the world to speak latin or fucking french
>>
>>48089739
Latin is really better, just take a look at the mess English phonetics and grammar are and compare to Latin ones. It's like 3.5 with homebrews and AD&D2e
>>
>>48089768
I never had problems with English phonetics and grammar.
It may be cause I'm polish though.
>>
>>48089723
Esperanto was the real mistake. It was European Union of languages.

English is a crossbreed that takes parts from all over the world. But at least it has natural evolution.
>>
>>48089808
It didn't

>>48089789
The clock is ticking, fix as many faucets as you can while you still can.

Dunno why I'm not surprised
>>

Joke about immigrants, I guess
>>
>>48089201
Chess player wins. He puts his king on a white square and blocks most captures since checkers need jumps to capture.
>>
>>48089808
At least it's not dutch... or japanese. Fuck those languages.
>>
>>48090256
Is japanese that bad?
>>
>>48089201
The chess side has an advantage, as all the pieces except the bishop can move to squares of the other color. The checkers pieces are stuck on one color.

Further: the checkers have to be right next to the enemy to jump them. The chess pieces can capture from a distance.

I think the checkers side gets rekt.

>>48090256
don't forget Finnish, literally impossible to understand. Sounds beautiful though
