I am curious here regarding draws. Should we be viewing the solution to
draws to be merely another specific game? Or, can we do something with
how game conditions are scored over variants in general (start with a
baseline) that would end up address possible draw issues with all them.
You can have a default starting place, and variants are free to do this.
Perhaps we could end up using a different default position than FIDE
chess. How about we look to Shatranj for example, and what it had, and
use that as the starting point? Maybe extend it some to account for more
modern play.
Just an idea here.
