题目: Re:

grenv: There are three separate issues here.

1) What are the rules in Ice Age Chess concerning mate on move 40? The inventor of the game should be able to tell us (if we know who that is).

2) What should the rules be? Anybody is entitled to their own opinion here.

3) How is the game actually implemented on BrainKing? This can be tested if somebody wants to play an unrated game, as I proposed earlier.

Now, if 1) and 3) turn out to be identical, all that is wrong on BrainKing is that the written rules are not clear on this point.

Only if 1) and 3) are different, 2) comes into play: Do we want the rules to be corrected in accordance with the inventor's idea, or do we like them better as they are?

题目: Re:

I agree playing a game would be the simplest way to clarify things. There is no right answer, only opinion. I expect it would take a long time to get a change made anyway. I doubt it is a high priority, particularly as Kleinme can't find a single case where this happened in practice. I can't start a new game at the moment but I'm hoping someone else willl.
