I play on a number of Internet Chess Servers and they offer a number of non-standard variations. For example, Loser's chess where you win if you lose all your pieces or get mated. In this variation, if it is possible to make a capture move, you must make a capture move.
Or there's Power chess where you get 7 queens (with a King and 8 pawns).
There's fischer random where the pieces are randomly arranged on the 1st and 8th ranks.
