Right now, the wuss scale is pretty much set in stone. Because of the mass numbers of votes, it would take over wins for a single celebrity to move up 1 percentage point. Two suggestions-
1. weigh the percentage of wussiness not just on how many wins or losses, but on who you lose to-ex, Ghengis khan would lose many points against hanson than agains Jesus, cuz Hanson's wussier. This should probably be modeled on the NFL ranking system
2. Every few months, clear all the votes, and let the wuss scale start anew (you could also bring in new and celebs at this time, and get rid of some old ones)
OR
Just do a tournament feature where every week, you get rid of 1/2 of the losers until you're down to two (this would work best using powers of two ex: 16 celebs, 32 celebs, 64 celebs) |

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.

How about having four knights instead of 2N+2B in variations with four kirbies? It would make the game more interesting by providing many more checkmate opportunities...

How about allowing us to enter a comment at the same time when entering a move rather than having to do it separately? This is especially so since you have to enter a comment before making a move rather than after... |

How about fixing the bug where it allows you to castle while in check?

I suggest that the "All Knights" variation be dropped or at least the chances of one being started be a lot less. They are pretty boring after you have played a lot of them...

I was playing snoot, after some attempt, it said enough already, game over. Once it did that, i refreshed the screen and it showed a new board. I refreshed again, and it said something about an archive with a score of 0 and to tell you what I was doing. So that is what I did.
Thanks.
