Variant idea: Veto Chess

Spacebar quit lol

right

For real? Wasn’t he the main dev besides @qilp?

he quit and we now have @goondrious in his place

Gotcha. How’s he working out in your opinion?

@spacebar

he definitely saved the server from demise but everyone's inactive now

Gotcha. Maybe you guys should try Ahab Chess to give some new life to the server 😝

Dew it

That's a nice idea !

Isn't this just duck chess?

I actually suggested this before Duck Chess was invented. Duck Chess is similar, though. Duck Chess makes a particular square impassible, this suggestion vetos a single move. Similar concepts, but Duck Chess blocks more moves than Veto Chess.

Good idea

Ah, I meant Nxf2.

Wow

wow indeed

lets keep on bumping this until the mods add this variant

They added Duck Chess. That's not exactly the same, but it has enough in common that they probably won't add both.

(also, that's a staff decision, not a mod decision)

I mean for duck chess, for the first move if I place a duck on d6, black can't play d6 or d5 but in veto chess the playeer can only stop 1 move
