Fergus: It seems that there is a bug in the log of your open invitation 'fergus-cvgameroom-2010-351-107'. I could not make the first move as White. And the personal invitation that I have just sent to you also have a bug.

Try it again. The bug wasn't in the log. It was in the code for writing logs. I have been converting the site to UTF-8, and the code for writing logs was missing the utf8_decode function, which resulted in writing your acceptance of my invitation into a directory with unreadable characters in the name. So, the old log is still there, untouched. I'll go to cpanel and delete the other one, since it is unusable.

OK. From my viewpoint it would be interesting to try Yáng Qí, apart from by using the swap rule, by applying the conversion rule that I conceived some time ago to the particular case of the symmetric array that you name Bigamous Chess. This would require to edit another preset by codifying such a rule for both bishops and vaos. Hope you like this idea. Enjoy!

Merging Chinese chess with Western chess was a very ambitious thing to do (altering two orthodox traditions) but I think you've succeeded! I like how you took the plain round disks and replaced them with chess pieces that are easier to discrimate. Good work on this interesting variant!
