573: Your chessboard has 30? pieces.
This is where I currently am in the compilation.

...Anybody have any idea what this is supposed to mean? This one honestly stumps me.

... I can't even think of something stupid to say.

My best guess is that he's talking about killing the nobles, kings or queens, leaving you with ~30 pieces, but even at that, it's horrible.

573: Your other main goal in chess is to kill the Queen too.

or

573: You play chess just for the excitement of killing nobles.

It's a reference to stockpile references.
You know, before you set that up, it gives you a ballpark estimate?

I'm not sure why the chessboard reference is necessary, though...

Holy crap that's obscure, I didn't even think about that. I thought the question mark was an odd typo...

Think of it like Sim City, except with rival mayors that seek to destroy your citizens by arming legions of homeless people and sending them to attack you.

I guess because there's 32.
Well I usually have ballpark estimates myself, no record keeper until third year :P
