Hello how may I help you? Hi, can you help me with a game? Yes, what is your question? Can you tell me who goes first in a game of chess? Yes. White traditionally goes first in chess. Does that give you an advantage if you get to go first? There have been discussions about whether or not this is an unfair advantage to the white. How do you decide who gets to pick to be what color? The players decide who goes first by flipping a coin. Great, that is all I needed, thank you You are welcome. Anything else? that is it, thanks You are welcome.
