Custom Position Stereotypes

After being on the variants server for however long, all the CPs I've seen fall into certain categories, and so, in this forum, I will be showing you my

Custom Position Stereotypes

All positions shown were seen on the Variants server

1. The M1

Feeling bummed out because of your 2763-game loss streak? Do this!

2. Checking for an Imbalance

Without Checky Chess:

Moral: Don't play a CP with Checky or Blindfold

3. 2P 4PC

Enjoy 4PC without the nuisance of waiting for 3 people, only for one of them to abort.

4. S P A M

WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT

5. The guy who looks at "How (Not) to Make a Variant" and copies a position

ChessMasterGS specifically said to NOT do this.

6. Double-MoverPlay 2 moves at once.

7. Zombie Apocalypse

"Chess is too competitive"

8. The Demised Variant

AKA Max's Game

9. The Idiot

I think you forgot about the 50-move rule

10. The Other Idiot

Yes, I actually saw this in the Variants Lobby. (Duck Chess is off)

11. The NCP

*Knight-rider Jumpscare*

12. The Chess.com/analysis Guy

This literally took me 5 minutes to make.

13. The guy who takes an official variant and changes one thing

Here's the variant we see:

Can you spot the change?

Here's regular War for Throne for reference: Answer: +20 for checkmate instead of +40

14. CheckersWe hate rip-offs of chess. This is chess.com, go play checkers on checkers.com. Pretty sure I messed up the colours too.

And finally ...

15. The Stereotyper

Wait, why is it a picture of me?!

wow.

How to make good variants: show your ideas to people and then hear what they say it’s wrong, I was able to improve one of my variants by a LOT with this method

bruh

This post is actually so accurate though

This was made "both as a joke and for serious reasons"

Almost forgot -- game link for #8

true

Dang, that image is off-centered. I can't find the align button anymore.

Play on checkers.com

It's an actual website.

yeah, for food.

try 247checkers.com

I wrote checkers.com because you play chess on chess.com

Take my upvote!

So true

this Is why I quit chess variants

10 will end with the 50 move rule

I’ve also seen “=8th Rank Golden Ratio”

Yeah thats 13 guy who takes an official variant and chanbes one thing.

hey checkers.com is a restaurant page

Don't try checkers247.com .

Checkers is a ripoff of Chess and must be abolished.
