Until I'm caught or the war is done.

First teaser, hope you liked it!
Yes! Nicely written!
Well done, or should I say, well played.
Cool!
Don't play chess that much but did recognize the players. Nice job.
that was an interesting riddle it was fairly easy for a chess player
Wow, I had no idea, but felt really dumb when I saw the answer. Clever teaser! It was cute.
easy for a chess player, but very well written
easy to like the easy ones. thank you.
THE TITLE GAVE IT AWAY.
CHILD'S PLAY! (I AM SURE CHILDREN STILL PLAY CHESS. AT LEAST WE DID WHEN I WAS A CHILD.)

I got this one right away, and I don't even play chess. Makes me happy.
B to W,W to B gave it away.EZ
I just made a move on a chess game so this one was extremely easy.
eazi peazi lemon squeezi...but fun first thing in a morning
Good writing, pleasing cleverness for one that I could solve.
That was fun, very well written.
Nice. My first thought was "War" played with a deck of cards but the clues didn't quite fit. Chess was the obvious answer after that.
Great teaser!
Great teaser!
I think I am too impatient for these teasers. I play a ridiculous amount of chess and I quickly gave up on the riddle and looked at the answer. Then I said 'Of Course!!!' Loved it, even if I was impatient.
I haven't played chess in 30 years , but I got it right away. The title and colors gave it to me. Well done, Keep up the good work. And, thank you.

Too easy, nice try though!
The great poetic presentation was appreciated and made the solution easy. Nice!
Very well done, I enjoyed it.
If you have ever played MOTAS you should know this one. I love to play chess so I knew it anyway. Thanks for the super teaser.

I love chess, that's what I said it was, didn't say knight.. O well. Fun teaser, a little easy, but still great if you don't want your brain to hurt too much!!!
Good one I knew chess, but had reach way back for the Knight. Haven't played in 50 years or so
Recognized chess ,but I did not get the knight . I thought it was really well written and i look forward to more of your teasers.
This was a well written teaser, but it was too easy for me. I knew it had to do with chess right off the bat. Maybe you could make your next teaser(s) a little harder? But like I said, it was a great teaser! Just easy.
way too easy
i feel dumb.......
Extremely easy. This is the fastest riddle I have solved. Read first line - Chess!! Second line - pawn or knight, third line - definitely knight!! Yeay!!!
Nice puzzle though!
Nice puzzle though!
Easy but fun! Thanks!
Knew from line 1 we were talking about chess. Extremely easy but keep em coming!
omg! i got this one right! this is the first riddle i've ever gotten right! i don't even play chess!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Note to self, do not do brain teasers early in the morning. I can't believe I didn't get that!
that was nice
Clever - thanks for posting!
Enjoyed it, though pretty easy if you are familiar with chess and the way the pieces move.
Nice teaser! Got me thinking for a bit, then i realized it had to be a chess piece
I am surprised at how many people play chess or at least know something about it. It is once again a teaser that I know nothing about and I know I am not alone, so it was not fun for me. Sorry!
easy but cute
I don't play chess but I am familiar with the board. I enjoyed this puzzle - cleverly written. Thanks for posting.
Well written, but far too easy( title gave it away )?
I got a game of chess for my answer. I have never played chess and do know anything about the individual pieces. I had no idea the teaser was about a particular chess piece - the knight.
