Crazyhouse Chess

Bughouse is like team chess. You probably never liked it because you weren't good at it. Its almost like bridge where you have to rely on your partner in order to beat the other team. Dual board view and being able to chat with your partner. Its a lot of fun.

Plus its more difficult to cheat in bughouse compared to regular chess which is another plus.

Bughouse > Crazyhouse

For those who don't know what crazyhouse is, its basically bughouse but instead of 2 vs 2 its 1 vs 1.
I would love to play crazyhouse too.

It could be used as a test run for bughouse chess, because the programming needed should be similar in some ways, but still much less effort than bughouse.

You "only" need the code for the dropping of pieces and the pieces in hand, but do not need a completely new design for two chessboard windows and comm buttons etc..
If variants are programmed well, I think Thibault would probably be willing to add them to the site.

You must fry your own fish on lichess.org. ;-)

I love both crazyhouse and bughouse.
