Nicholas, great questions! And thanks for the compliment! My answer to Sam and updating of the rules should make the second set of questions clear. Please go back and have another look at my rules as I've updated them to wipe out the massive loophole both you and Sam pointed out to me. I also updated the notes a bit. Also, look at the notes. I will try to answer your questions more thoroughly than necessary here though.

1) Were you doing this because I like Mamra Chess with Wuss so much?

Well, you were definitely a big part of the mix. This new variant was conceptualized in part because of how facilely you keep beating me at this other game. For me, lots of playtesting is central to inventing. Hopefully you will beat me less easily in this new one yet like it even more! :)

[I deleted the rest of this post because Nicholas's reflections ultimately led to a rule change after further consultation with him. Thanks, Nicholas.]
