We will be playing Bughouse during the day

Basic Rules of Bughouse:

1. The game begins when the clocks are started and each team's white player makes their first move. After this, the games continue as normal chess games, with the following major exceptions:

2. When a player captures a piece, they must pass it to their partner. For example: if a team's white player captures his opponent's rook (a black piece), he must pass it to his partner, who is playing black. If a pawn promotes and is then captured, it reverts back to being a pawn when it is passed.
3. On each player's turn, they may choose to either make a regular chess move on the board or place one of the pieces their partner has passed on the board. There are no restrictions on where pieces may be placed, with the exception that pawns cannot be placed on the first or eighth ranks.
4. The game ends when any player is checkmated or runs out of time on either board. That player's team loses the game. Keep in mind that a player is not checkmated if they have the potential to block a check by placing a piece there, even if they don't have a piece "in hand" yet; the possibility of their partner passing something to them is enough to keep the game going.

The Basic Rules of Bughouse is the same as normal chess.
