Cylindrical Chess
By: Taylor Date: October 22, 2013, 10:50 am

Figured we should give this a try.
Basically, the left side and right side don't exist.
For example:
[tt]BLACK
A B C D E F G H
8 . N B . K B N R 8
7 P P P P P P P P 7
6 . . . . . . . . 6
5 . . . . . . . . 5
4 . . Q B B Q . . 4
3 . . . . . . . . 3
2 P P P P P P P P 2
1 . N B . K B N R 1
A B C D E F G H
WHITE[/tt]
In normal chess, the Queen can't capture the other one.
In this variant, though...
[tt]BLACK
A B C D E F G H
8 . N B . K B N R 8
7 P P P P P P P P 7
6 . . . . . . . . 6
5 . . . . . . . . 5
4 < < Q B B Q < < 4
3 . . . . . . . . 3
2 P P P P P P P P 2
1 . N B . K B N R 1
A B C D E F G H
WHITE[/tt]
The borders don't exist on the left or right side.
If the north and south sides were gone, it'd be checkmate at the
start of the game :))
This test game is to see whether it will work.
In most chess games, one person plays against another.
However, for this test, I'll let all members control Black.
For example, Dr. Egregious can control Black's movement in the
first turn, Shane can control the second turn of Black, Kushagra
controls Black's third turn, and so on.
Also, if Dr. Egregious and KarjamP both post their move before
the movement is made, Dr. Egregious' move is made and KarjamP's
cancelled.
If Shane and Dr. Time both post their move before the movement
is made, Shane's move is made and Dr. Time's move is cancelled.
Something like that.
First one to post has that movement made, in simple terms (I
hope).
