I'm a big fan. If anyone is interested Alon (psy-T) and I have been developing a chess variant for some time. :)

I don't play anymore but I'm still curious what it is, I was ranked 5th in the state back when I was in 4th grade :p
Also at my middle school's chess club we played one variant that was more of a 'fun and silly' variant, but dope nonetheless. its a doubles game, you and your partner play opposite colors and sit next to each other. when you capture a piece, you pass it to your partner (if you're white, you capture black, and your partner is black), and you can use your turn to place a piece captured by your partner (can't place pawns on the 8th row, can't use them if you are in check, can't place a piece to put your opponent in check)
makes for some ridiculous games :)

Yes, we do have a piece called shemale ;). Its awesome but I love the Monster and Immobilizer. The variant is played on an 11x11 board. Pawn promotion happens in the 6th row. The king is limited to a 3x3 row (EFG, 123)

Anyone know of any websites that I can play during work that don't have a time-limit?
there's a facebook app from chess.com
you can make a move, come back the next day and continue on with no time limit.
had a few games on it, lotsa fun.

I found this video of former WC Garry Kasparov rather funny.
I love the moment, shortly before Anand moves, when he realises his mistake.
