For the checkmate, i was thinking something like an orgy where the winning team would have their way with the defeated. I'm leaning towards this for two reasons:<br/>1. It's more fun :)<br/>2. There will be players left somehow outside the loop. Like rooks, or the king... you know pieces that move once or twice and that's it. With this ending, they too will have a chance to ...enjoy naughty chess.<br/><br/>On the other subject now, another approach would be dedicated threads to the pieces. This will keep the thread count to a minimum and has of the piece's recorded epic history.<br/><br/>What do you say?
