ranting about chess turn-sequencing terminology 

@emily I have also seen something like this convention (although usually "action" rather than "move") and it's quite confusing that both conventions are relatively popular. One of the most common questions even among experienced boardgame players is "So which one is the round and which the turn?" or a variant thereof.

So yeah, word are indubitably hard. Dx

@emily Oh, and sometimes there are higher level (multi turn/round/cycle) periods, and these also sometimes get called "rounds", although never "turns". So if I was picking a naming system for a game I would probably avoid "rounds". >_>
