A neat concept for light game! A few questions: <p><ul><li> Is it allowed for a wormhole to form such that it causes a stalemate? </li><p><li> Assume a white Pawn on a7, and a wormhole on a8 -- if the white Pawn moves forward, does it end up on a1 without promoting? If so, can it doublemove from a1? What if it moves to a2? </li><p><li> Can a wormhole be <em>removed</em> in such a way as to put a King in check? </li></ul>
