Illegal Chess

I have created a new way to play chess, I call it: Illegal Chess. Here are the rules: ... There are all the rules. Just do whatever you want, move any piece any way you want. The only thing is that this must be played in the board editor (unless someone figures out how to place down pieces from nowhere).

How does a game of illegal chess end? If you checkmate my king, I just teleport him away to another square. (;

it ends when someone flags

how else?

Ok, I win on one move. Just take your king - even if it isn't in check.

"it ends when someone flags" - can't happen, because I add an infinite amount of time to my clock.

it doesn't, you just have as much fun as possible with the other player until you both feel like stopping :)

also, what checkmate?

Surely I'm overthinking this,but what you propose is not really "illegal chess", but "anarchy chess", because legal moves are also possible.

"Illegal chess" would be a variant where ONLY illegal moves are allowed, and standard moves are not permitted.
