we play htis game at lunch at my school every day. during exam week when we had a 2 hour lunch break we got 9 boards going at once. i t was crazy. the boards in the middle had more pieces available to drop than could fit on the board!! also, our rules of ending are different. you play to when the king is taken. then if your king is taken in bughouse our partner has 3 moves to mate his oponent to make it a draw not a loss. and in 3, 5, 7, 9 board etc game, when a king is captured i is passed to the middle so that if one of your partners gets maited, he can use the turn that he owuld normally have right before being taken to dtop another kind somewhere else. (those king dropping rulaes are very lax as someone once dropped their extra king to mate their opponent!!)
