[ein]

LCS simply because, at this point, I've played it more than DF, but with DF, it was mostly Adventure.

You use real people as pieces. When capturing another piece, the two try to beat each other to a bloody pulp, and the winner captures the other piece.

I think we are thinking of different types of Chess Boxing. In the Chess Boxing I know of, you alternate between rounds of boxing and rounds of chess, whomever wins first in either field is victor. It's interesting. Do you bank on the chess champion who might not even surivive one round of boxing, or do you bank on the boxing champion who might get himself checkmated in five turns?

I keep reading the title as "General Trolling Thread".

Also, Chess Boxing.

The question then becomes: how do you define a "round" of chess...

A match consists of up to eleven alternating rounds of boxing and chess. The match begins with a four-minute chess round. This is followed by three minutes of boxing, with rounds of chess and boxing alternating until the end. There is a one minute break between rounds. Speed chess is used, a form in which each player has a total of only twelve minutes for the whole game.
