Okay, so you no longer claim that it's the world's most popular chess variant. I guess you'd be happy to admit that the statement previously displayed on your profile was an exaggeration if you dont want to go as far as calling it an absurdity.

You consider the existence of a "federation" to demonstrate proof of popularity? There is a federation of Gogo shogi, the first time I ever played the game was in a match for the world championship such is the paucity of players. A federation demonstrates some manner of commitment by the practitioners, it has nothing to do with popularity.

Tsiang Ki is Chinese Chess, the rest is a matter of demography. How about the popularity of suicide chess compared with that of Gothic Chess.

Considered by whom? Larry Kaufman has never been considered to be clearly the strongest occidental shogi player, Glyndon Townend was considered stronger in the eighties and in the nineties the likes of Grimbergen were at least his equal. Tsiang Ki is of course a lot more popular than Shogi, do you also have that as a "stand alone"?

Strictly a chess variant is played with standard chess men and board, in this catagory there exists suicide chess which has been played at least once by almost every young player. Your game uses a different board and pieces putting it in the same catagory as games like Mak Ruk, Janngi, Shogi and Tsiang Ki, games with tens of millions of regular players.

Относно: GothicInventor

I'm glad to see that you've removed the absurd claim that Gothic Chess is the world's most popular chess variant from your profile.
