Next Chess Move

More people responded to the chess move AWS Mechanical Turk HIT at $0.25 per move rather than $0.05 per move and making it available to non-Masters.  5 workers responded (out of 5 requested).  Only 3 provided valid moves for white using the FIDE chess algrebra.  2 workers responded with non-valid algebra, and one of those appeared to be trying to indicate a move for black rather than white.

The average time from HIT creation to HIT submission was 58 minutes, 49 seconds.  The last HIT submission came in 1 hour, 38 minutes after the HIT creation.  The time period between submissions averaged 19 minutes, 32 seconds.  The average time between a worker accepting the HIT and submitting the move was 1 minute, 46 seconds.

The accepted moves were:


pe5
c4
Nf3

So I'm going with Nf3, leading to:


r . b q k b n r 
p p p p p p p p 
. . n . . . . . 
. . . . . . . . 
. . . . P . . . 
. . . . . N . . 
P P P P . P P P 
R N B Q K B . R 

Gnuchess comes back with Nf6:

r . b q k b . r
