Doublechess will also appear in the next RV poll:

'Doublechess is one of the most popular CVs which
can be played on Richard's Play By Email server. No other CV inventor
has done more to supply sample games of his invention to your
site than I have. I have been running Doublechess tournaments
on Richard's PBM server almost since the day it was added.
Take a look at the current published Doublechess Standings to
see how many people have played it and how often they have played it.
Doublechess' beauty lies in its simplicity. It contains no special
pieces. Lay two standard chess boards side by side to create a
16 by 8 board. Use two chess sets and replace the second set of
kings with a third set of queens. Lay the first army in the center
and the second army out in the wings. Doublechess games are rich
with tactics and have the 'feel' of orthodox chess.' -- David Short.
