I think when creating custom positions using the board editor, it should be possible to include certain fairy pieces in the position. I also think that when creating custom games, it should be possible to set the promotion to certain fairy pieces. Some fairy pieces I have in mind are 1. More Leapers such as -The Alfil, which jumps exactly two squares diagonally. -The Dabbaba, which jumps exactly two squares horizontally, or vertically. -The Camel, which moves like an elongated knight, moving exactly three squares vertically and one square horizontally, or exactly three squares horizontally and one square vertically. The camel can jump over other pieces or pawns. 2. More walkers such as -The Ferz, which moves exactly one square diagonally. -The Wazir, which moves exactly one square horizontally or vertically. 3. The Grasshopper, which moves in any direction, by hopping over a piece, and landing on the square immediately behind that piece. The piece a grasshopper jumps over can be any distance away from the Grasshopper. From what I found it looks like the Alfil, Dabbaba, Ferz, and Wazir are worth about half a knight, and the Camel is worth about 2 points.

'Master of Chaos' requires to get all the moves from Brilliant to Blunder.

There are a few people who want to play this funny time control but with their rapid teams rating, so can it be rapid instead of blitz?2|10 which is rapid in teams is blitz in self partner, so why isn't 67 rapid in teams when it is blitz in self partner as well? And I don't think there is anyone playing this time control who wants it to stay blitz, so there shouldn't be any problem with it.

The requirements for getting on Solo, FFA and Teams leaderboards are: at least 2 games played within the last two weeks at least 20 games total of the leaderboard's rating type. Champions formula: there're 2 types of champion: standard champs and variants champs. For #1-20 on a leaderboard, you get 100,80,60,50,40,35,30,25,20,15,12,10,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 champ points respectively. Games Played: both rated and casual games count. Aborted games do not count.

I think you guys remember this bot, M3GAN! This bot was known for "kidnapping" the cat bots back in the day. But then, when Mittens, the god of cats in chess, defeated her (or him), they were all saved! But... Edith (the halloween bot of rating, 1300) looks JUST LIKE M3GAN! Is it her (or him) who is going to do the same thing? Or is it just that Chess.com just made a mistake. What do you think? Comment your opinion...

Hello - I recall reading about how checkmate temporarily freezes a King and his army.  However, once the checkmating pieces are taken or move, that King and army are now active in the game again.  How come this convention is not displayed in the variants?  (or, perhaps it is and I simply haven't found it).   Thanks for any info on this matter.
