Forum

what I mean is that making forums to advertise a slot machine like today, where a user spammed a mobile app,and was banned, or show a common mate, like when someone made a whole forum to show fools mate and it had to get locked. so please, use them as a example of what not to do. please comment other wrong ways to use the forums. thank you.

Dear Admin and Variant Lovers, I have a great idea for a variant, but it requires construction/programming that I cannot perform. The variant requires the computer to acknowledge certain positions that are currently not in use under any available configuration of rules and pieces, and so forth. How will I proceed? Do I make anyone curious? The idea itself is not complex, it is really just a simple addition of some of the detective capacities that the engine already possesses. It is called 3MT1, and is a development of 3check, one that I think will benefit strategic and tactic faculties of all players of chess. Please, tell me how to proceed, so I can get to test it. Me and a friend have tested it already IRL, and we thought it was great. However, while playing it over the board, we might have missed something the engine would have detected.  Yours, Johannes. 

Same as @imchesspro0930 ‘s idea proposal, except that the criteria to join is lower All you have to do is messsage me in my inbox that you want to join, I will give you a test consisting of 3-10 questions, you have 24 hours to give me your answers, if you are a person I know well then you won’t have to take the test, you can also request being a super admin or admin, but your request might be declined. P.S everyone’s tests is not necessary the same For the admins, if this violates any rules, please lock this forum, please do not delete this forum, and If it doesn’t violate any rules, then lock this forum too, because people may spam their test results.

Overview A game of Chess960 chess but the players work together to stalemate in 65 or under 65 moves.  Basic Rules  8 * 8 board Chess960 starting position Classic pieces Pawns promote on 8th rank Castling rules are normal En passant is allowed Changes From Classic Chess Goal is to stalemate in 65 or under 65 moves Elo is the same for both players (If they fail to stalemate in 65 or under 65 moves, then they both lose 10 Elo. Same for vice versa.) *******Except for the situation shown with the Chess.com logo******* Elo always changes by 10. It either goes up 10 or down 10 but never changes by any number other than 10. You cannot draw by agreement There are no queens. Instead, there is another knight. You cannot promote to a queen either. If a player resigns, then only the player who resigned loses 10 elo. The other player's elo stays the same as it was before.  Finishing Touches If the game ends in anything but stalemate (i.e. checkmate, perpetual check, etc.), or the game takes over 65 moves, then the game is considered lost and both players lose 10 Elo.  This is the end of my idea, and I really hope that you enjoy and want to make it a real variant.  Goodbye, and have fun playing chess!  *SHOUTOUT TO @XXXIKKKKKKK*                                                                                                            --- @Sterling-Murphy

every turn, the 'cloud of fog', (a 3x3 space of fog with the same properties as Fog of War fog) moves randomly to an adjacent 3x3 space. the fog starts at a random part of the board

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jm_yhwvwY_QKZUf-dTc8AhkKrjotccbvsIZRbXnfz14/edit?gid=0#gid=0 The link above is a Google Sheet that I have created that includes all currently accepted NCVs on chess.com. It will be consistently updated shortly upon the acceptance of any new NCVs. It includes: -Variant names and authors -Player/zombie counts -Links to each individual variant -All applicable rules for every variant -Instructions to make a personal copy and sort the variant data Now you might be wondering, "Why did he take so much time to do this? And why?" I made this because I was scrolling through the Variants page one day and I was like, "These variants are so cool... but it must take a long time to get to know them". So I made this to make knowing the rules of variants more efficient, rather than having to scroll through the Variants page and select each game mode individually to learn more about its rules. As for why I spent so much time... Because I could. Hopefully, this can enhance your Variants experience by allowing you to find new variants (if any!) and can help newer players find variants that they like. It also helps me personally with knowing which variants are 2-player and which are 4-player. ...Enjoy.

The Camazon is a combination of a queen and a camel.

Like a rook but can jump 1 piece at a time.

Instead of a Chancellor ( + ) it's a Cancellor! ( + )

speaking itself. btw,i thought it worth to notice 8000+ for another seeking cause now 60+ UR variants now

Basically in driving chess pawns can move forward as far as they want. I’ve played this with my friends on a real board and I found that it’s very difficult in endgames because any passed pawn could win the game

Rules: Before your opponent moves, you may expend 10 seconds of your time to 'predict' what their move will be. If you guess correctly, you will gain an extra move on your turn, allowing you to move twice. You only have the time that your opponent takes to play their next move to guess what it will be. If you guess incorrectly, you lose another 10 seconds.

I have a new piece idea: the Queen's horse!!! It is a mix of the knight camel and the Queen, but can only move 4 spaces diagonally! It would give lots of new variant ideas and could be a full-on game changer!!! Another idea! Emporer! a king that moves twice as much going horizontally and three times as much diagonally and it can move like the Qaganzy horse!!!

I thought Minihouse was hard to win so I made this. It still has the same strategies as Minihouse, as one move is all it takes to lose the game. 45 seconds will make it more fast-paced. Like the regular Minihouse, it has so many tricks, tips and traps that people fall for. According to @Coolwind7, the computer can go through all possible moves quickly, if the opponent plays horribly, then one player can get advantage up to +20-30. I have done about 30 testing games with exactly 10 different players. Hope you like it, and I hope @bsrti likes it because he is the best minihouse player and @MrKheese because he made the original!

https://www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/81465318/0/1Surely I'm not the first one to have this idea: This position is the aftermath of a checkmate and now white king is captive. But whites have a new army to save their king from blacks' dungeon.However chess.com engine limitations make this game intrigating. The goal is for the white king to reach e1 square and for blacks to not be checkmated. In an ideal engine, checkmated kings return to the dungeon. But all I can do in this engine is to set the rules to taboo, hence check is forbidden for both sides. An improovement would be to make the whites immune to checkmate (until at least the king reach some advanced row) and may be separating the goals so that only whites can capture the flag. The practical solution I'm wondering: Is there a way for an unroyal piece to capture the flag? (So it can't be checked in the process)The problem with taboo is that makes kings too powerful, and without taboo that it spawns a war for the B3 and C4 squares and makes that the whole purpose.

I want to try to make some games that has board sizes like 5x5, 7x7 or 9x9 but the pawns, whatever number I select to be pawns home rank, for example, I covered up 2 edges of a 10x10 with transparent bricks to make a 9x9, but when I set the pawn's home rank to 2, the white pawns can move forward 2 squares, but black pawns don't. And when I changed it to 3, now both side's pawns can move forward 2 squares, but when a white pawn advances 1 square on it's first move, on the second move it can ALSO move 2 squares! And for the promotion ranks, I set it to be 9, then the white pawns do promote at the end rank but black promotes 1 rank early! How can I make these odd sized boards?

Probably a terrible idea as my previous one gained a LOT of backlash, but here goes: In this chess variant, pawns promote to generals, which move like a king and knight on the 13th row. Kings can move into check as game design to avoid stalemate. Camels which move in 3-1 L shapes are added for more variety. Resigned pieces still move and winner is still determined by points.
