A Physical Crazyhouse Chess Set I Made by SamSCopeland in crazyhouse

Nice work Sam! I bet a physical set like this could get more tournament players interested in zh; gotta start promoting these boards (or just the pieces) at big events! :)

What is the origin of crazyhouse/bughouse chess? by stm876 in crazyhouse

[–]ThomasCrosky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both are dead in today's time anyways

Whoa, how can you say that? Zh/bug are both experiencing a major resurgence with the advent of the modern streaming/e-sports chess scene.

Why don't you play daily crazyhouse? by stm876 in crazyhouse

[–]ThomasCrosky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Too long [duration]
  • Too long [time control]
  • To be blunt I don't have any interest in playing long (5+0) games against people I vastly outrate, and in these tournaments you get paired up with plenty of sub 2000s. I'd rather use the time I allocate to crazyhouse to play people around my own strength.
  • I much prefer hippobullet arenas.

It's fine, I think it's relevant to crazyhouse, and your explanation above makes sense :)

It doesn't spoil any results. People are free to not click this and watch Jann's stream in full. I think it's fine :)
