Answers.Text: For the 20 moves examples, it is worth noting that your query considers Black's short-castle as a light-squared move. This sounds reasonnable to me, but someone may be surprised when they see the rook reaching f8...

Body: <p><a href="https://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1067168" rel="nofollow noreferrer">This game</a> was dubbed &quot;White Key Symphony&quot; by chessgames.com for the fact that Karpov made moves on only light squares for 18 moves in a row.</p>
  <p>Is this still the record for the light squares, and what of the dark squares?</p>

Title: What is the longest string of moves by one side on one color of the board?
ThreadText: # What is the longest string of moves by one side on one color of the board?
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2023-04-10)
  
  [This game](https://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1067168) was dubbed "White Key Symphony" by chessgames.com for the fact that Karpov made moves on only light squares for 18 moves in a row.
  
  Is this still the record for the light squares, and what of the dark squares?

  Thanks to this [CQLi](https://cql64.com/) query:
  
  ```
  cql(input Mega_Database_2023.pgn)
  
  flipcolor {
      sort "Consecutive"
      line singlecolor 18 1000 nestban --> move to light . *
  }
  
  // check 3-fold repetition:
  dictionary (min) $D
  if initial then unbind $D
  
  $appearances = 1
  $key = zobristkey
  
  if $D[$key] {
      $appearances = int($D[$key]) + 1
  }
  
  $D[$key] = str($appearances)
  
  $appearances <= 2
  
  ```
  
  which I ran against Mega Database 2023, I found some interesting stuff.
