NEWS 1377 (17-May-00)
Giveaway Chess on Chessclub.com!

Chessclub.com now has Giveaway chess, also known as Suicide, as
wild 26.  This is similar to Loser's Chess, already available as
wild 17, in which you must capture, and the goal is to lose all
your pieces, or to have no legal moves.  Giveaway chess has some
differences.  For example, your King can move into check or remain
in check after your move, and you can promote a pawn to a King.
Read help Giveaway for all the details.

Giveaway will be rated in the Loser's rating category along with
your wild 17 games.  You will need to download the new version
of Blitzin 2.30 to handle Giveaway properly.  It is available at
http://www.chessclub.com/download
