Wow. Thanks. That's it. Can't believe I've never heard of that before. Can't wait to use it on someone else, so they'll get confused and come here to tell u about it – dubs, on January 13, 2009 06:52

Weird: My opponent somehow took my pawn with his pawn when they were sitting side-by-side!

this makes no sense, but I'm going to try and explain it best I can. I am playing a game with 22Jonathan22, my username is ehweber (i think). 22Jonathan22 just attacked with a pawn, but he attacked an empty square (in other words, he shouldn't have been able to move diagonal, but he did). Moreover, he captured my pawn which was in the square directly above where he attacked. It seems as though the game incorrectly registered the space that I actually moved to. Maybe I'm missing some special rule in Chess, but I'd love to know what is going on. (If I am, then I'm an idiot)

some clarification: i'm confused why the mic on the iphone has stopped responding whenever i plug in non-apple headphones. when i first had my iphone, i could be listening to the ipod on some nice headphones, then, when someone would call, i could just speak into the bottom of the iphone as opposed to the mic attached to the official apple earbuds. now, no program will respond. i can't even plug in my computer speakers to play my ocarina nice and loud. not happy.

and, after quitting rjdj, when i take out the headphone jack halfway, the ipod will start playing on its own. this really confuses me.

please help.

headphone jack issues

so, when i first started using rjdj, i was using some nice sony headphones. the scenes were generating sounds from the mic near the bottom of the iphone. but the, the scenes suddenly stopped working. now, they only work when I use the official iphone ear bud headphones with the mic attached. why did it suddenly change?

also, after quitting rjdj, as soon as i unplug the headphones from the iphone, the ipod immediately starts playing, which makes no sense.
