Anti Chess

Avatar of hondoham

there is a lot of chatter about cheating on-line. how ironic it would be if chess variants were able to lure back the  "chess purists" to the internet.  as wikipedia puts it, Bobby Fischer's primary reason for making 360 chess was to take chess from the positional line players and give chess back to the tacticians.

I doubt AntiChess can be played on Chess.com, and, as a result, I would recommend you try FICS to play the variant of Chess you refer to.

My dad said it was called "give-away" chess lol

I don't think I'd expect chess variants to be supported here.  I could be wrong - the development here seems more than capable of implementing variants well, but it seems to me that variants would be played by only a minor fragment of the community here.


That being said, I think I'd really enjoy a decent web implementation of Capablanca or Seirawan chess.

He's this guy who has a rating of 800 something. He's unbeatable at anti chess. And he plays on Chess.com. So take that schemingmind.com!

 ajachi,  I like the way you talk about yourself!  Your self-deprecating ways shows that you are brought up in the traditional Asian culture. This is so refreshing from what I have read what others say about themselves here . They boast and say they are the "greatest". But when challenged, they give excuses not to play!  We Asians are cultured people and do not boast about ourselves!

Sounds cool but it would be hard to switch between the two variants bet if you played it lots your true chess rating would go down interesting to see.

Erik... Wahhahhh!!! why can't weeee have Anti-chess.   Waaahhhah!!   don't want to visit other sites...

(look what you people did to the baby)


Even i was thinking about that... People would love to play this variant of chess.. And it would be nice if we can play on chess.com


Erik, it would be amazing if we could have various kinds of chess available here. For example, like the recent post of "Fairy Chess". I understand that it might take some time and possibly money (I'm not sure) but I believe it could draw more members to your site. I personally would enjoy learning about some of these game variants. Chess.com has been great already, don't get me wrong!

 

Thanks,

And then we should have other board games like checkers!  And Chess.com would be renamed Boardgames.com!

A self contradicting statement... well done.

Ha!  I was thinking precisely the same thing.  "You're so full of yourself.  That makes me better than you." Undecided
