VIIJuneVShell65$bw6n6aboutHecroatia0000 so far. Croatia was extraordinarily hard to guess. Currently stuck on the chess game, if anyone has generic advice on how to not suck at chess.

Fun bonus: it can't seem to figure out what's going on with the knight. Using "K", "N", or "S" for knight all get me "invalid notation" warnings. I'm having a lot of fun.

New update: got the chess answer! It will accept "N" for my Knight iff I make stupid moves with it. Moving my knight to take a bishop is "invalid notation", but apparently putting it in the middle of nowhere to be captured by a rook is the best possible move.

Final update: Paul died in a fire. :I
