I disagree with everything Jeremy says in starting ''Multiform'', suspended almost immediately, 19.August.2007, except for his quote of Ralph Betza, italicized probably in Blue at the end, at the start: ''In order to come up with something really new, you have to know what's been done before.'' Jeremy Good also quotes actual book, by Lippmann. In fact, ChessboardMath's next project, along with separately studying '9x9's, may as well be a book 'The Chess Artist' 2003 by J.C. Hallman. The precedent will be the two books on the automaton Turk we already reviewed. Jeremy's thread here has formulation of Chess Variant Page two-track system, originally the accepted method of operation, comparing it to Badminton. To answer Joyce's question(easy to figure out, there being only 4 comments), I consider 100 squares an automatic reject, because increase of over 50% would be overwhelming -- admitting 100 to be round and popular number, making Joyce's question appropriate. However, we cannot, and must not, force the board to fit requisite criteria. Edit Form You may not post a new comment, because ItemID Multiform does not match any item.
