Crazyhouse is not a recognized variant of the month?
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>Crazyhouse is not even a recognized variant yet. It must become a recognized variant before it becomes a recognized variant of the month. It is currently a candidate for recognized variant status.</P>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
i don't know how that could be, it shouldn't even have to be voted on,
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>Well, it is being voted on, because that is the most reasonable way to maintain the growth of the recognized variants list. The poll for the summer addition to the list isn't over yet, and you can go vote for Crazyhouse in it.</P>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
not a hour goes by on the planet where a crazyhouse game is not being
played, and that is a conservative estimate.
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>We have no means of measuring this. The most reliable measure we can rely on for deciding what to add to the list is voting.</P>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
you should make crazyhouse a recognized variant along with whatever other
game you recognize in a future month
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>I will make Crazyhouse a recognized variant if it gets top ranking in the current poll. Show your support for it by voting for it.</P>
