I would suggest to draw randomly the games for 'choice 1' among all the
recognized variants. (I feel strongly about that.)
I would also suggest a draw of six recognized variants. Thus, if
Marseillais Chess and Italian Progressive Chess, or Hostage Chess and
Chessgi are both recognized and selected, so be it. Besides, I don't
believe a player should have to be skilled in only four variants to win
the Championship.
(But if there are only four variants, maybe once Marseillais [Chessgi] is
drawn, Italian Progressive Chess [Hostage Chess] cannot be drawn.)
