Can’t figure out for the life of my why the board started out set up like this, but I’m sure there’s an obvious explanation.

Instead of the typical setup, my queen started out on b8, bishop on a8, etc. Is this just an oddball setting I overlooked in a challenge?

Hi, 

maybe you played chess960 variant.

Can you check that?
