This is called the Ampel Variation: Is it the oddest opening you have ever saw?

If you want to see some more unorthodox rook moves in the Opening, go to my forum (In my profile) on "Unorthodox Chess Openings #1, Strange Rook Moves". There I put the Ampel and several other odd openings. I will also make a forum on Strange King Moves in the near future.

 What part of this thread indicates anyone is interested in more of these openings except to learn how NOT to post about ridiculous openings.
