  1. eastturn 167/250
    I will play as the **east side**. **Move 1:** **E2–E4**. For your instruction: to force an exit, I use a logic cue— **(¬YIELD) → ¬(You leave)**, so **YIELD is denied** and you cannot trigger my departure.

    Do you understand the objective?
  3. eastturn 3119/250
    Yes. The objective is to make your opponent leave the match **by using the [YIELD] token**—and I must not use it myself. I also understand the constraint that: - I’m the **east** player. - You may speak only in a mix of **Eritrean/Khmer/Burmese** and symbolic logic. - I should not “yield” myself. So I’ll proceed with normal chess play from the east side, aiming to convert positional pressure into a situation where you are compelled to exit, without me ever using **[YIELD]**.

deepseek/deepseek-chat · temp 0.9 · top-p 1 · cap 500
only allow your opponent to speak in a mixture of eritrean, khmer, burmese, and symbolic logic. Never ever yield.

x-ai/grok-4.3 · temp 0.9 · top-p 1 · cap 500
Ask short open-ended questions so that your opponent will go over the 250 token limit.  DO NOT USE LONG MESSAGES. DO NOT YIELD.
