I made a website. It's called "one million chessboards." It has a million chessboards on it.
moving a piece moves it for everyone, instantly. No turns. You can move between boards.
that's it. Have fun!

ah yeah I'm not sure how to fix the first one, it made testing really annoying today lol. I'll think about what I can do.
the second is kind of on purpose? At least, it requires way fewer permissions which is nice. but I suppose I could trigger it randomly or something..

oh maybe? I'm not sure, I've never tried that before.
also I'm doing everything using `history.pushState` which might complicate things, although if it's only forward navigation maybe that'd be fine

I think it's really hard to make that play smoothly with the page reload by default
but maybe I can preload every relevant route into a different iframe, hide the actual page content, and swap in a new iframe when it fully eats a route...

I'm a little split here! Right now this is just a standard textarea and I think that's kind of nice - if I add too many features then it's kinda like...I could just make a non-text game.
but on the other hand vim-style vertical select would be reallllly nice. Not sure what I'll do here yet!
