Chess 921,600

Chess 960 shouldn't require the placement of pieces on both sides to mirror each other. Both should be allowed to be random, for a total of 921,600 possible starting positions. This may eliminate any advantage of White moving first since the moves wouldn't necessarily mirror each other either, and make it more interesting.

Lol that would be your own invention alright 😂

Lmao I'd be the first to play

I no longer here will play standard just because my experiencing too many engine users, have several times cc message me they're adding to my rating due they caught someone that I played using one.

Chess engines could easily play chess 960, just alter the starting position in the position setup. No rules of chess are actually different, just the starting position of the pieces.

Well, considering the fact that I'm not for reading on where to move, tactics etc., I totally dig 960 because to me IT IS MORE LIKE CHESS, and not some opponent that gets something by studying someone else's moving tactics, but each opponent's own skills and handling the game.

But I do btime love 4 player

White would still retain advantage in most setups.

4 player chess is absurd LMAO, can't figure anything out in that!

nah i think chess 960 is better, nice idea though.

Lmao dude

...what you need to do is check out my archived wins yo, some seriously insane games and you'll get then what works, like bringing your Queen out first thing, while lol everyone else is attempting to promo you're wiping out one side from you. I've won some great games, played 2300 players and won, lmao while my rating was 1400 something. 😂

Just spectate some games and get the hang how it works fully, and one thing to warn you is the regulars hone in on newbies for their +20 King, is lmao probably why you haven't liked it to begin with. 😂

It is totally better THAN standard. Also increases your standard skills btime.

This game alone increased my points 100. https://www.chess.com/variants/4-player-chess/game/48068858/212/4

It's pure insanity, like a weird LSD induced dream about chess.

Err what about fairness? Some setups are better than others, and especially since the 960 world championship is prominent, each game needs to be fair to both sides.

There you go.

Both sides can defend any positional weaknesses in time, all the pieces are still on the 1st rank.

Yeah, but dude... there's many ways to create variations with your proposed creativity, and as well many time one side can be of NON beneficial compared to the opponent. He is correct yo.. #15

...and, here's another win by me, even lol with a couple terrible blunders. 😂 https://www.chess.com/variants/4-player-chess/game/48141405/214/1
