At first I figured this was just another "haha, it's big and there are a ton of pieces", but then I got to the Progressive part. I'm not sure if that saves the game, but it at least makes it worth asking about; your example games link doesn't work (and strikes me as a little sketchy anyway).

Yes, there is a problem with my example games link. The pdf file with the games can be found on my Facebook page. If it were possible to attach such a file here, I would gladly do it. The first experimental correspondence tournament has recently ended and I have the results of all 42 games with diagrams. If you want I can send it to you. I won't say that tremendous chess is saving progressive chess. No, it's completely different chess. Judging by the results of the tournament, many players, even of a decent level, were confused and did not find the right tactics and strategy over the board.

That would be nice. Send to chessvar@yahoo.com so other editors can see it if they'd like. Probably putting in the page one particularly illuminating example game would also be nice.
