What do you all think? a Win a Draw or a Loss for who? happy.png

Someone who can see the future V/S Someone who can read minds

The_nail

Person who can see the future EZ. No Matter what the other guy does, he can always choose a scenario where he wins, practically solving chess.

AJackPotato05

The person who can read minds can just see into what the guy seeing the future is thinking. So he/she can also see the future kind of. They'd both be thinking the exact same way so I think it'd be a draw.

Who plays white?

my brain just imploded

Pulpofeira

liberalbeanieguy

lol

adrian_mclain

probably the mind reader since they would kind of be able to see the future as well, and counter whatever the guy who can see into the future might try and play

Ta3ym

Well, the future person can put false thoughts into their mind so the reader person can't see what's inside. So I think the future person is at an advantage here.

The_nail

the future guy can always try to erase his memory or try not to think about the game, and only think about it on his move.

MrIndia

The person playing white will play 1.e4 and then black will just keep thinking until his clock runs down

This is like chicken and egg lol

Confuse

Probably a draw since they can both see the same thing.

The person seeing the future avoids all losses

Person reading minds can also see the future since he's reading the guy who sees the future's mind. Therefore they can both see the same thing.

he can see the future, not change, edit, manipulate it

the future viewer should learn occlumency (hope you know it. If not, dm me and I will tell it)

But what if the person who can see the future lacks chess skill, and the person who can read minds is filled with bad ideas? Furthermore, if the person who can read minds doesn't know how to play chess, then I would say anyone could win. But if we look at it in a case where both chess players are advanced chess players, the person who would be able to see the future could see the end result, therefore the person who reads minds would see the end result also. Ultimately, both people wouldn't even have to play the game to know who won.

unless they are a certain person with a scar on their head which causes their mind to kind of be linked to another person's mind
