- This website was born after Patrick Bernier told me about
- a variant he invented, called 'l'Échiqueté', which involves mixed pieces,
- half-black and half-white. Back then in 2012, I developed a small website
- allowing to play by correspondance with this variant only. I already had
- in mind other variants to be added to the website, 'Zen chess' being the
- first on the list because it changed so much the thinking process that I
- was very curious to play it.
+h3 History
p.
- After a long break, a prototype website allowing to play
- live games was tested in the end of 2017, with only a few players.
- One year later the first version of the final website was published:
- it offered three modes, against a human, a computer engine or analyzing,
- with about twenty variants available. The current website is a more modern
- rewriting of this initial version: it now has the basic features expected
- from a chess playing website :)
+ This website was born after Patrick Bernier told me about
+ a variant he invented: l'Échiqueté ('Checkered' here), which involves
+ pieces that both sides can play.
+ Back then in 2012, I developed a small website allowing to play this variant
+ by correspondance.
+ A few years later I had a prototype to play in live, then other variants
+ were added and the website was improved to be more attractive.
-p.
- From the main Hall, you can see and talk to online players,
- send and accept challenges (live or correspondance), and also watch current
- games. If this is your first contact with chess variants, you probably should
- start with the 'Variants' page from the top menu: it explains all the rules
- and allows to observe sample games or play against basic bots. Finally,
- at any moment in a game you can click on the 'Analyze' button to analyze
- the position. Try not to do that in live games, your opponent would know ;)

- | A considerable number of people helped for this website,

- | Bevis Martin, Laurent Nouhaud and Christian Poisson for early testing and
- | advices from 2012; to Yovann Gatineau and Anatole Vlachos for their

+h3 Historia
+
+p.
+ Este sitio nació después de una discusión con Patrick Bernier, quien me contó
+ habló sobre una variante de su invención : l'Échiqueté ('Checkered' aquí),
+ involucrando piezas que pueden ser jugadas por ambos lados.
+ En 2012, desarrollé un primer sitio pequeño permitiendo jugar esta
+ variante por correspondencia. Unos años mas tarde tuve un prototipo
+ para jugar en vivo, y luego otras variantes se agregaron
+ y el sitio finalmente se hizo más atractivo.

+
+p.
+ Ce site est né à la suite d'une discussion avec Patrick bernier, qui m'avait
+ parlé d'une variante de son invention : l'Échiqueté ('Checkered' ici),
+ impliquant des pièces pouvant être jouées par les deux camps.
+ À l'époque en 2012, j'ai développé un premier petit site
+ permettant de jouer à cette variante par correspondance. Quelques années plus
+ tard je disposais d'un prototype pour jouer en direct, puis d'autres
+ variantes se sont ajoutées et le site a finalement été rendu plus attractif.
