Flame Dragon Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 I've only ever played normal chess. But I have fun playing, and I'm good. I've got 4th and 3rd in the 2 chess tourneys I've been to at my school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kizzi Posted March 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Variants are fun. If I play a more complicated variant, then go play normal Chess against someone else, I win quicker. xPProbably because my brain is getting used to more complex strategies, neccessary in some variants, but merely a tool for winning in normal Chess.I've only ever played normal chess. But I have fun playing' date=' and I'm good. I've got 4th and 3rd in the 2 chess tourneys I've been to at my school.[/quote']I got first in my only chess tourney, though the rest weren't too experienced, really. There were only 4 main threats, 3 of which I beat, the other got knocked out. Also, I went, with 1 of my friends, to a MegaFinal. And we were both 0.5 away from getting to the GigaFinal. And about 5.5 points away from the TerraFinal. Which is like, the junior UK chess champions... >.<I've only played normal chess also. I kinda suck.It's still fun though? xP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Supreme Gamesmaster Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 I do normal chess, and am pretty damn good for my age. I also make up my own arrangements of pieces sometimes, and leave the movements alone. It's fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was:[Q] [N] [R] [bsh] [bsh] [R] [N] [K]Â Â Â Â [K] [N] [R] [bsh] [bsh] [R] [N] [Q]Bolds are my opponent's, italics are mine.K = KingN = KnightQ = QueenBsh = BishopR = RookPawns are placed as normal.

Guest Supreme Gamesmaster Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 One of my favorites is when you switch the rows, so that the pawns are in the back and the king is exposed from the front. I also like having the pieces arranged as:  • P P P PP R B B R PP N K Q N P I call it "The Battlement." Note that • indicates an empty space. It is placed so that the king and queen are in the first or eighth rank. Feel free to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I've lost about 50 out of about 500 games. If you haven't played any variants, give it a try! ^.^Edit: I lost a pawn at the start of a game against my math teacher (best in the entire school) and I ended up losing because of it. >.<Also, he was the ONLY one in my school that I lost to. Twice, in fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
