Idk playing as a team is the fun imo
Solo Bughouse Option
Sort:
I completely agree that an option is to play both boards. Firstly, some players do that anyway or a team is in the same room or using headphones to communicate and two players who only communicate using the "chat" feature are at a huge disadvantage. Also, it takes so long to get a bughouse games, sometimes so long that I forget I even am waiting for a game and I lose "by abandonment" because I don't hear the notification or I leave the computer for a couple minutes. Finally, it would be nice to know accurately how good one is at BH, no partner to blame. Crazyhouse is a completely different game than Bughouse.
There should be an option where you can elect to play both boards of a bughouse game for several reasons:
1. You don't have to wait until an available partner is online, and you could even play against another solo, needing only 2 total players.
2. Avoids Arguments over each others moves with a partner
3. If you see a Mate on the other board you don't have to proliferously scream through the chat, you just make the move yourself
4. If you are playing against two separate players, maybe you can get 1 extra minute of clock time for each board or something. If two Solo people are playing both boards each (one -on-one) they could either both get 1 extra minute or leave the clock alone as it is fair.
