How to prepare your own 3 player chess board?

For all you chess lovers, three player chess board is "the" thing now. Three minds are always better than two. And hence, three player chess board is. It adds all new possibilities and complexities to the already complicated game. Not a chess player myself, but I am always amused looking at people outplaying their others. And I have a couple of friends who play really well. This post serves as a tutorial in building your own variant of a three player chess board. :P

Apparently, the board above is patented. I wonder why I didn't come up with this, after looking at how this one is designed. :P It is made by dividing a circle into three equal 120 degree sectors, and then compressing one half of squared shaped chess board into a sector each! I guess a picture better explains this. But this should give ideas to people eager on inventing a 4 player chess board. What say!

But this three player chess board is nothing new. People have been unleashing their creativity in trying to incorporate 3 players into one single board. And the simple rule to follow is to have parts of a 1/2 chess board. All the pictures below should give you a rough idea in case you want to come up with one of your shape.

Creativity Scaling New Heights!!

Tomorrow is national ILOVE U DAY if u get this that means u are loved. Send this to 10 people in the next 143 min and tomorrow will be your best day ever. Tonight at midnight your true love will realize that they love u. something good will happen to u at 1-4 pm tomorrow, it could be anywhere. Get ready for the biggest shock of ur life, if u break this chain u will be cursed w/o relationship problems for the next 10 years. If u get it back ur loved if u have a lot of love for someone... copy and send this to your whole list... in five minutes

Jeez, this is highly hilarious!! If I send this msg to all my list ( no matter they r guys/girls), then the GOD wid his magical powers makes my true love realize - irrespective whether i hav one or not - and mind u this happens only at the mid night!! Something good is gonna happen tomorrow itseems, yeah my manager is gonna screw me... but this happens to me almost everyday.. And no relationship for next 10 yrs, thats really sad!! And i cudnt really decode the meaning of the last line.. The funniest thing is itz jus NATIONAL LOVERS Day. So all these curses are applicable only to ppl of this nation.

But one more doubt strikes me, wat'll be the impact if I love a gal of different nation?
