Comments on: Backgammon or Chess? http://www.theoriesonlost.com/2009/12/backgammon-or-chess/ A place to write and read Lost Theories Thu, 17 May 2012 19:43:17 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Joshcgs http://www.theoriesonlost.com/2009/12/backgammon-or-chess/#comment-21056 Joshcgs Tue, 15 Dec 2009 05:19:51 +0000 http://www.theoriesonlost.com/?p=7307#comment-21056 thanks ostin, check out some of the comments, I actually think that we were led to believe Ben played a queen but he never really knew Jacob, he has been a pawn as well. We have yet to see Jacob reveal his queen who could be Ilana, Jack, Richard...... I also related how in chess the kings are unable to kill eachother!!!!! If two kings were left on the board they would keep moving around it is a stalemate. The kings needs another piece to do the deed! thanks ostin,

I love this idea and each charecter and piece you have mentioned fits perfestly into the storyline. Is it possible that before Jacob was killed then if he was king he may have swapped with a castle and "ROOKED" therefore the person we see die is actually the castle? Just a thought.

What if The Others are already captured pieces off to the side of the board? What if when Locke was declared leader of The Others he had either been captured or had made it to the other side of the board and had been queened? Or when he returned to the island with a definite purpose? So many possiblities…
