The Bug Thread

no, it is a double check 

it's only a check to the yellow king

You checked Yellow, but uncovered Yellow's bishop (which checks Red's king). Since you made 2 people get in check on your move, it's considered a double check, and you get 5 points. 

ah, ok

FYI, we just updated variants and doublechecks are only +1 now, no longer +5. triples are +5 (were +20)

That makes sense, since the checkmate is only worth 3....

Wait, so does this apply to the 4pc server as well?

"updated variants" means no.

But once 4pc moves over to variants, yes

Why is 4pc being moved over to the variants server? Don't you think it is doing fine at the moment. 

I disagree with 4pc double checks being only +1 though, for chaturaji it makes sense, but not for regular 4pc

I do.

but: Variants is "4PC 2.0" https://www.chess.com/clubs/forum/view/four-player-chess-15

from @cuber4130:

when I make a 1900+ hyper fiesta game the people playing should join the 1900+ not the one without rating range the game the players playing the without rating range are 1900+ why do they not join upon clicking play this game again it works in standard but not variants why???

I don't think this is intended so I'll report it here:

Can be done by adding "oppX=1000" in the PGN. Works for any number, even decimals

Same thing with points for mate (this is definitely not standard)

LOL

I tried to make that, but I could not find out how to play it

@spacebar. If found a bug. I have seen Ox4, Ox5, and Ox6, but I have never seen Ox10,000! 

Link: https://www.chess.com/4-player-chess?g=7212412 How did someone make a Ox10,000 queue?!

as #325 just said, load pgn.
Ox10k sounds like fun to me

Wait, so it is not a bug. How do you out Ox10,000?

Yes, Imo OX 10000 has its own unique strategy XD

I'd call it a feature
We might disable that feature though, in variants, if we find the time.
