Everybody starts with BKR=1300 but it is shown when the player finishes at least 4 rated games.

Subject: fencer?
where on the site are the ratings for example:
for playing a non rating player to a rating one for lost or win?.....in loop for instance!.I have notice when a non rating player wins he gets high score....but when a rating player wins a match against a low rank he/she loses just as much...

Forget it, I've already found the bug. It will be fixed within several hours :-)

The first change should be active, no pawns can promote on the last row.

To put it bluntly, either white needs more pieces or black should have less!

There will be no extra queens if I disable pawn promoting :-)

Whatever you think would help! :-)

Or what about files 1, 4, 5 and 8? Prevents Blacks' guaranteed queens without sacrificing white's pawns.

The pawn row idea seems to be the most interesting to me. Maybe not all 8 pawns, what about 4 pawns on odd or even columns?

Subject: Black's advantage
I have become aware of black's big advantage in this, and have been told that it will be changed. I think that even if you eliminate pawn promotions, there are still really no pieces white can take unless black gives them to white. The idea of having 2 Majarajah's for white wouldn't make a big difference either. Even if both had to be taken for the game to end, black could still force 2 extra queens (if white sacraficed one of their pieces).

I thought it might be a better idea to simply elimiate both of black's rooks. Even then i think black would have an advantage, but it wouldn't be near as big.

I also thought maybe giving white the row of pawns in addition to the maharajah (white has only the maharajah in the back row) it could be more fair.

Subject: Re:
Fencer, I've always won when playing white, but right now I'm about to lose! The player kept shuffling the back pieces forward, so I never had a place to take a black piece without losing one of my own.
The end result, I have 2(?) pieces left, they have half a dozen pawns and a queen! Eek!! I'll let you know the outcome! But I'm not too confident about this game!!

I never won this game as black. Does anybody know a good strategy? ;-)

This is GREAT!! Ha ha! Anyone want to play? I prefer to play white, but I'll accept any invite! (providing I'm not up to my limit on games!)

Subject: Re: Question ?????
That's what the rules are for! lol
Basically, when you capture one of your opponent's pieces, it becomes yours and when it's your turn, instead of moving a piece you may place one of these pieces on any empty square. Other than that, just like chess! :-)

What is Loop Chess? I've never heard of it before

Subject: Re: Corner Chess
The starting position of the pieces is different. And it is randomly set when the game is defined. Read the rules for all differences.
