Argomento: Re: Doubling cube in chess
Herlock Sholmes: as far as I understand, two kings and two bishops is automatic draw, and ofering doubling cube is a nonsens.

First of all, there's no such thing as an "automatic draw" in Chess. There are some blitz rules that state that if your opponent runs out of time, you cannot claim a win if you don't have the material to mate, regardless how bad your opponent plays; there are also some rules stating in which situations one of the players may claim a draw - but those are not enforced in BrainKing. Second, I'm not a fool. I picked a situation that's theoretically a draw, but does allow a mate: White: Kc1, Bc3; Black: Ka1, Ba2. Black is in check, a2 is occupied by his own Bishop, b1 and b2 are covered by the white King. Third, how is the "nonsense" part to be coded? A game starts with a doubling cube. At what moment in the game does offering a double lead to BrainKing replying "heh, dude, we're playing with a doubling cube, but obviously, doubling is nonsense, so I'm not going to let you"?

AbigailII: could you try to play the game of chess with me, and pretend we play with doubling cube ? Of course when doubling is refused by either of us, we have to quit ... want to try ?

Herlock Sholmes: No. Three weeks from now, I'm not going to remember there's one of my 300 games with a "pretend" doubling cube.

But I could tell you what my opening move would be: "Double". So, basically, all scores are doubled. Instead of "1-0", "0.5-0.5", or "0-1", the scores will be "2-0", "1-1", "0-2". Frankly, that doesn't do a whole lot for me.

AbigailII: I think when you are the doubling player the opponent could always redouble when he thinks he is winning, so if you double there allways will be 4 point at stake when you double on turn 1.
