Too few Crazyhouse arenas

It works! Took me a few goes to figure out how to add the bookmark before it redirected me though :)
Just one thing: I note that two of the tournaments overlapped, and I had to go to the tournaments-created links to find the arena that had just started, rather than the one that still had a few minutes to go (but no takers) which is where the I-want link took me.
again it is just another variation of chess while standard chess is the most important and hence crazyhouse isn't given much impoortance
#33 I guess the question I would ask of that statement is this:

Why do you think it is that today I won 8 Crazyhouse games in a row, but got 2 wins 1 draw and 2 losses when playing standard chess (against similarly-rated opponents)?

My contention would be that there is standard chess, and in approximate order of how different the variant is, in terms of how one must approach the game, you have King of the Hill (closest to chess), then 960, then Horde, all of which are more or less the same as standard chess. Then you have fundamentally different variants: Three Check, then Crazyhouse, then Antichess, then Racing Kings and then Atomic (furthest).

@falconsacred69 You haven't even learned how to play classic chess, but you already appreciate crazy house. Swearing obscenities transliterated on the forum is a stupid thing to do. Shows your low level of development.
The table at #3 shows that zh isn't the top variant. So, if we are going to have more tourneys for zh, what about the other variants with more popularity?
