Sam has closed his piano and gone to bed ... now we can talk about the real stuff of life ... love, liberty and games such as Janus, Capablanca Random, Embassy Chess & the odd mention of other 10x8 variants is welcome too
For posting: - invitations to games (you can also use the New Game menu or for particular games: Janus; Capablanca Random; or Embassy) - information about upcoming tournaments - disussion of games (please limit this to completed games or discussion on how a game has arrived at a certain position ... speculation on who has an advantage or the benefits of potential moves is not permitted while that particular game is in progress) - links to interesting related sites (non-promotional)
Actually a very good idea, although giving up the crutch of 20-30 move opening preparation backed by computers would be difficult for many. Even if Grandmasters were willing to throw away all that tradition you would probably still need a sponsor like Jaap van Oosterman (sp?), the guy who sponsors the Melody Amber rapid chess and blindfold tournament, to finance a big board experiment like that. Do we have anybody really, really, really rich out there who would like to sponsor a chess variant tournament?
