3. DET OVÄNTADE DRAGET (3. THE UNEXPECTED MOVE)

Den fråga som störst andel deltagare svarade rätt på var schackproblemet som faktiskt gav svaret i sin titel, eftersom endast ett drag krävdes för schack matt! Tricket, om man vill kalla det så, var att inse att brädet var vridet 90 grader vilket syns på att rutan i nedre vänstra hörnet var vit mot normala svart. Rätt svar: 1 (1,5 poäng)





Time to turn the table?
Brädad av svaret?



The question that the largest number of participants answered correctly was the chess problem, though it even gave the answer in its title, since only one move was required for check mate! The trick, if one wants to call it that, was to realize that the board was turned 90 degrees making the lower left square white instead of the normal black. Correct answer: 1 (1.5 points)

Sometimes, an educated guess is all that is needed ;-)
