Suggestion: Make Tiny Chess a Variant

Sort:
Avatar of 25GSchatz22

I had an idea for a very weird variant which can be played online or in real life. Basically, the chess board you play the game on is extremely small, taking up only 1% of your screen. That would make playing chess, especially bullet, very hard to do. Miss clicks would happen often and most people would rage and destroy their computer mouses. If the variant took place in real life, if you knocked over a chess piece, you would be penalized with time deduced to your clock. What do you think?

+1 if you like it

-1 if you dislike it

+0, because you can technically zoom in .-. Unless you can make the board keep it's size no matter what. and irl would be weird .-.

You can make it so that you can't zoom in

It would probably be in bullet format.

-1, because there will be no fun to it and it will only be frustrating

-1, you have lots of chances to make misclicks and if you zoom in, that basically means that there's no point in even having the variant

You can make it so that you cannot zoom in.

Mis-clicks make it unique.

+1 I like the idea, but in variants where the board is smaller, it is easier to lose out of making a few mistakes or misclicks. However, I still support and I think this would be very interesting as a chess.com variant.

-1 Cheating by increasing screen size cannot be avoided or detected. There are options to make it harder to resize the board, but anyone with good technical knowlage can circumvent that,

Love the idea, so it wouldn't just be me misclicking every single game. IRL it would be kinda weird, and we already do have minature chess boards, but they are not usually used.

I'm sure that most people will say -1 once they actually try it out
