1. juli 2009, 15:00:25 Onderwerp: "Up and Down Chess" - new way of playing here is what I managed this night ... this is a new way of playing chess, around the chess board, kind of spherical ... Andy. 1. juli 2009, 15:18:52 Onderwerp: Re: "Up and Down Chess" - new way of playing  Herlock Sholmes: Wouldn't the fact of the two kings being next to each other kind of make it an invalid starting position? 1. juli 2009, 15:27:10 Onderwerp: Re: "Up and Down Chess" - new way of playing pauloaguia: No, these two rows are completely separate ... imagine a line or "river" dividing these two armies ... they never cross this line and play in different directions, up or down ... this is just like regular board but wrapped, so even if you see them touching, in reality they are far away from each other ... thanks for remarks, Andy.
1. juli 2009, 15:49:47 Onderwerp: Re: "Up and Down Chess" - new way of playing Herlock Sholmes: I fail to see how your variant is different from regular chess. All you seem to be doing it cutting the display in half, and moving it to the other side - like an old fashioned TV warping its image half a phase. 1. juli 2009, 15:57:35 Onderwerp: Re: "Up and Down Chess" - new way of playing AbigailII:yes, bingo ... this is the whole idea ( I was thinking about wrapping, not cutting in half, but it works the same way) ... This is why I do not call it "new game" but "new way of playing" ... it's different like any other spherical version is different from basic form of chess ... it stretches our perception and make the game a little bit more complicated ... more surprises are guaranteed ...and first of all, it can be fun and refreshing ... Thank for your input ... Andy. 1. juli 2009, 16:13:43 Onderwerp: Re: "Up and Down Chess" - new way of playing Herlock Sholmes:just to make clear ... in Up and Down Chess armies show their backs to each other ... they have to go "all around the globe" to fight the enemy ... they cannot turn and attack from behind ... initial position is very unusual in this variant and can be played easily on regular chess board in real life ... it's funny to see how pieces pop up on the other half of the board ... those of you who played Alice Chess will have fun (and it's much easier than Alice Chess) ... Andy. 1. juli 2009, 17:08:31 Onderwerp: Re: "Up and Down Chess" - new way of playing Herlock Sholmes: Ok, but it's not a new way of playing. Strategies are exactly the same as regular chess. The most you can expect is to have some errors made because of the new board layout but even that will go away with a little bit of practice... after a while, they won't be any more common than the errors you can make on the regular board... 1. juli 2009, 17:44:20 Onderwerp: Re: "Up and Down Chess" - new way of playing pauloaguia:we are not going to discuss, what is and what is not the new way of playing, are we ? In a broader sense every departure from classic chess is a new way of playing ... in this case we have mechanical changes of the board itself ... like Abigail said, board is cut in half and glued together in a new way... but this is not as important as the new, demanding look for the players ... please note ... every move that reaches the other half of the board requires from you a break in normal perceiving things on the board ... you have clearly your defensive part of the board and offensive one, down the screen ... this lack of continuity makes this game challenging ... you are right, the more you play on this unusual board the less mistakes you make ... but isn't it true for any kind of games and boards ? Thanks, Andy. 1. juli 2009, 17:58:14 Onderwerp: Re: "Up and Down Chess" - new way of playing Herlock Sholmes: It seems pretty dumb to me. And with a bit of style sheet hackery, one will be able to have it displayed as a regular board as well. I don't see the added benefit of having this - but perhaps Fencer can make it a user option "display my chess board in an annoying way". 1. juli 2009, 18:16:53 Onderwerp: Re: "Up and Down Chess" - new way of playing AbigailII: there is nothing more disappointing than having no response for your creation (here: Up and Down Chess) ... so, I am happy that this version brings you to the discussion board ... and you Abigail used one perfect word for this game, though you probably had different intention ... it's annoying ... yes, I haven't seen more annoying game than Up and Downs ... try to play some classical debuts and you will get what's on my mind ... especially these situations where your attacking piece is Up the screen and attacked piece is Down the screen ... of course I am biased, but let me telll you, this game has the ability to frustrate you beyond any acceptable level, because it forces us to control "two" boards at a time ... and I think you are wrong ... this game will add some benefits to our collection of chess variants ... Thanks, Andy. |
