If the length fits, "zugz vang" ;)

Clever!

Limited to seven spaces, though.

:sad:

You could get rid of the U.

How about "EN PSSNT". Or "RNBQKB R" (after 1.Nf3 :smile:)

In my country the licence plates consist of three short sections separated by hyphens. So I would choose: "O-O-O" .

Unfortunately I don't think we are allowed to choose custom plates like that. At least, no-one ever seems to do that here. How boring!

Regarding "CHECKM8" being too smarmy, I suppose "IRESIGN" would be too much the opposite?:smile:

"N PSSNT" sounds like "PISS ANT" too much, but it fits the seven character requirement.

It took us a while (Too long!) to figure out "RNBQKB R". We initially thought it might be some sort of notation. (All we use is algebraic notation.) Alas, the seven character limit kills it.

"O-O-O" is very nice but dashes are not permitted. We can only use letters, numbers and spaces.

"IRESIGN" is too close to real life!

:ouch:

JADOUBE (my favorite)

FIANCHTO (too long, but perfect for a hypermodern lover)

DRWOFER (since you don't want IRESIGN)

Is STALEM8 also too smarmy?
