Lol March your king up the board? Some would I guess. Throw in the towel and throw the game. The game of a lifetime (pun?), reduced to ten moves.

but he said if you lose the game and you don't lose your chosen piece you LIVE. Seems like the easiest solution b

Assuming you have to try and win the game, I would take a rook as my piece to live or die with.  They are protected to start (unlike pawns), and they are not developed until later than most other pieces.  So there is a decent chance that I or my opponent get mated prior to the Rook being in danger as compared to any other piece.   There is also generally a lot more space on the board at the time the rook is active on there so maybe he can run around as needed while I am being mated .. assume I am allowed to try and live more than try and win the game.

I can't argue with that. But with the Fischer Random Championships being held, does anyone wonder if Fischer would've marched his king up the board?

Yes, rooks also sound like a safe option. I guess I'd just avoid competing for the open file.
