New hand & brain/alternating moves variant onto chess.com

There are so many variants with absolutely no players that were implemented, and this would surely have atleast a couple dozen of players at a time

MustaJari

Also just thinking about the actual logistics of coding it doesn't seem to complex compared to other variants

With chat, read my previous message.

And vote chess isnt really that fun in the end. You can say you like it, but youre just going with the flow

I really like vote chess. Some people don't, but it's one of my favorite things to do besides variants.

I get it, but this would have the exact same effect. Some people will like it, some wont. Not all variants have players at all- so nobody likes them. Why not make something with good potential a reality?

if you want, you could even make either a new one or make it customable where you can choose how many people on a team. if you do the max amount should be around 5 per team

MustaJari

Making 3 player or 4 player teams should work, 5 might be a bit too much. There is literally so much potential with this idea. Especially alternating. Why put it down when you've never tried it? Again, the coding of it doesnt seem complex.

MustaJari

No. Vote chess is multiple people vote on one move. Not one player plays a move, then another plays a move

now you just made vote chess

well I meant where each person makes a different move. player 1 makes move 1, player 2 makes move 2, player 3 move 3, etc.

I don't like it, because it's completely against how variants work.

if you want to add it to some other branch of chess.com, like a club match, that's fine, but not for variants.

Well, there really isnt a forum to post a new gamemode is there if it isnt variants?

charlesbeat21

or what if chess.com made a whole new branch for things like this? I'm not sure what else could be added to it but it could be called team variants in the play tab. like the variants were made into this format. imagine horde being played 3 vs. 3

There actually is a team variants tab, but this isnt a part of it and nobody plays them lmao

MustaJari

To clarify, its not normal variants in a team mode

charlesbeat21

oh ok. just thought of it when he said make it somewhere else. thought it would be pretty kool.

MustaJari

It still is a "variant" of normal chess. Perhaps it could be called the "team chess" tab

I want to clarify that i totally agree. It isnt like the variants that exist, however its a completely new style of variants.

I play team variants

Im not the most familiar with variants, but i meant the tab "team variants" when you click on "4 player chess and variants" and then "more" and THEN "team variants" Of course you can play teams 4PC.

no I mean the sp variants, which is what is under that tab

I especially like storming the castle and find the path

Does it just not show the player count on those games?

MustaJari

To me it seems like the player count is basically 0 all of the time.

MustaJari

I'm just saying that team chess is basically dead, and this could revitalize it, atleast a little.

I shouldn't have told you to come here.

I think know how this can work
