In variants, you can change the amount of points a player has in custom games but the maximum is 10^21-10^5 (999999999999999900000) and the second highest score you can achieve is 10^21-3*10^5 (999999999999999700000). You can't even reach other numbers like 999999999999999812121 and 999999999999999900001 for example. If you go higher than that, it becomes e+ notation (scientific notation) and when you click it again, it only takes the first digit of the e+ number. Chess.com should add points accuracy when there are a lot points and make it possible to get to 2^2^10-1 points before overflowing and showing infinity and winning the game.

The only time anyone would get that many points is Ox10000 or default points. Ox10000 is never used, as it automatically resets to Ox6, and default points should never exceed 10.

well, there are accepted variants with more than 10 starting points for a player, and many games with higher starting points are completely playable.

I think that this is a very far-fetched idea that has no real practical use other than to be an Easter egg lol

So this was how P4M was introduced into variants?
