Of course with Falcon Chess 8x10 we disagree any '8x10 is dead', but to
contrary the obvious logical expansion, without ruining Pawn play, and
still below Shogi's 81 and Xiangqi's 90. 8x10 is surely correct rather
than 10x10, but who can definitely rule out Courier 8x12? Thousands of
oddball forms do not hide logical evolutions, as happened between
Shatranj and Modern -- be they today Fischer Random, specific Carrera
arrays, Falcon, Mastodon, or saving Mutator on 8x8 such as
later-introduced pieces. I mentioned more than once standard ubiquitous
European draughts boards 10x10 at Chessboard Math and ProblemThemes. This
thread became topic of board sizes 64,80,100 generally. Sam 
Trenholme, who started it, is noted for his own mid-1990's website of
pre-existing  Chess forms, not encouraging proliferation for its own sake.
We would be interested where any 80's are being played besides Brainking,
in order eventually to seek open inclusion of Falcon Chess there. Jeremy
Good's absence removes the only Falcon Chess advocate besides ourselves
developing work-ups. What about the mere existence of new Play servers without
specific addresses being named?
