Fergus,

Sounds good.  Speaking of other tournaments, has there been any talk of CV
Tournament #4?  I was talking to Joe Joyce the other day and commenting on
how I was not a part of CV during those days and would like to see it.  On
the other hand, there is a tournament going on right now that has Clockwork
Orange Chess as the variant for a certain round.  My suggestion :)  Maybe
when we start it, you can overlook some of the games and see how your
variant is playing out.

Are there any stipulations on these NextChess ideas?  For instance, if I
were to try to invent a variant for this, would it qualify if I thought it
included the qualities that the masses would like?  Or would it have to be
more profound of a variant that has been tried and tested, such as your
Eurasian Chess and Great Shatranj?  I am debating on trying to come up with
one, but if it won't be used, then I may bypass the effort for now. 
Thanks!
