In their own words

  1. The first illegal move

    Recursive: Flint (free) tried f1e3 on move 5, which was illegal: there is no piece on f1. It played Be3 instead.

    … actually the bishop on c4 is well placed. My plan: play Be3, then castle. Or Nf3-d4, Bg5... Actually the best move: develop the dark-squared bishop to d3 or e2, and get the king safe. Let me play Be3. Actually, given I have an extra pawn and strong center, I should just continue development: Be3, then O-O. Let me play Be3. The bishop is already on c4 (I moved it there), so f1 is empty. The legal moves list shows the bishop options: Ba6, Bb3, Bb5, Bd2, Bd3, Bd5, Be2, Be3, Be6, Bf1, Bf4, Bg5, Bh6, Bxf7. The right move is Be3 (bishop to e3). Let me call make_move with Be3.
