Some chess people will be discouraged by this, but others (including Bobby Fischer) have found these variants of interest. The Chess960 website (link in initial posting) might be of interest even if you do not want to join the BOINC project. By the way, the BOINC project explicitly excludes the standard starting position, if that matters to you. ID: 12331 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
