Goldenskulls new Video Puzzle

Goldenskull has left a new puzzle on his site which is a video of a chess game. Using the previous key I have translated this to :

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
THERE ARE TWO FINISHING MOVES IN CHES5. WHAT ARE THERE NAMES"

I believe these are Checkmate and Stalemate and I have posted this answer on the site

I am just replying to a few of your questions. First question was about contact with the skulls. I haven't noticed a decline in contact with the skulls, if anything I think they are talking more. I don't know yet why the skulls have stopped contacting the others nor do I really care. The point is to gather the skulls and we are progressing. Who knows maybe they are flushing out the traitor that they mentioned.

The second question was about were the skulls are coming from. I highly doubt the skulls are residing in a single location. They seem to move freely around, jumping from server to server. How they are able to do this is up for speculation. One of you had the idea that they might be pure energy. Which is plausible and could explain how they move around with so much easy. But to my knowledge there is nothing man made that could do something like that. I don't think I will be able to follow them all the way back to a single location. I am only tracking them, following were they visit, who they visit, and how long they stay in a particular location.

It is all very fascinating. To me it seems as if they are doing some gathering of there own. I tracked them to Wiki, an online dictionary, and several historical databases. Each was followed by a massive download. By massive I mean It was such a large movement of data it caused me to lag, and I was only observing them. It seems that they are still searching and storing information. So some of the speculation about them being a primitive computer could be correct.

I haven't been able to get into the 13skulls site for over a day now, and there hasn't been a response from Golden to confirm the second puzzle solve. Do you think the traitor has struck already?

newb0y that's a normal response sent from blog sites like myspace, etc. where the person has chosen not to allow comments without first approving them which is a way of making sure offensive stuff doesn't get posted to your comments. So, for all of you that got that message, it is not a confirmation that the answer is correct only that your comment can be displayed.

I wonder why goldenskull hasn't replied yet....
Maybe there's something going on that we aren't aware of.

This is just an idea, but there has to be a reason why the skull hasn't approved our answer Checkmate and Stalemate. The name of the song on the page is "Say it Right'. Perhaps:

The first 5 letters are the same, at least. I gave up after that.

i see words as well, obviously a word search. the title "chess search" kind of gives it away. oh well, off we go.
