As a proliferist, I totally understand that when a new member joins the
site they may post quite a number of variants which they have either
collected or created before their arrival.

I have quite a number of games which I have not posted here. Some because
they are just not quite finished, others because they may be a little
silly and some people often don't get the punchline.

Rather than just creating minor variations of the Mad Queen, which there
are quite a large number, I often concentrate on variants of other forms.
For example, simple games which resemble the ancient wargames like
Latrunculi or wargames that may be very abstract or games that attempt to
anticipate the future of wargaming.

And it surprises me that there are those who, rather than finding
amusement at this site, seem to only discover frustration and irritation.
Maybe it is a state of mind.

Just keep this in mind, the Mad Queen is simply a variant of Chess. Yes, a
very good one but still just a variant.
