Note: this is just a suggestion -- I'd like feedback on this new schedule

The idea is:

  • threecheck, Chess960 and KoTH are the most similar to regular chess, so grouping them together. Possibly there should be more of these tourneys too though.
  • antichess is not a popular variant, so decrease its freq, and couple it to the other esoteric variants (racing kings, horde)
  • zh is the most popular variant after 960, so incr freq.

I haven't done anything explicit about avoiding Atomic 5 0. In general, another issue is the speed selectors use mod 7, and that means speed cases 0-2 happen more frequently than cases 3-6

Where are you getting this information from? Antichess is the most popular variant on lichess, with 100+ people joining each hourly.

@cFlour yes understood. That's why this PR is closed in favor of one which will not reduce antichess tourneys
