Here is a clarification edit for the move sequence: 

1. B W / 2. B W / 3. B W / 4. W B / 5. B W / 6. W B / 7. W B / 8. B W /
9.
W B / 10. W B

which could be re-written as:

1. bW wB / 2. bW Wb / 3. bW wB / 4. wW bB / 5. bW wB / 6. wW bB / 7. wW
bB
/ 8. bW wB / 9. wW bB / 10. wW bB 

The lower case letter is the player who 'owns' a set of pieces, and the
upper case letter is the set of pieces that player is moving. So this
would essentially be: 'for Move 1: the Black player moves a White piece
in lieu of the White player taking his own turn, and then the White
player
moves a Black piece in lieu of the Black player taking his own turn' --
and this would happen for moves 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13... etc. 

The other variant, where instead of switching one player plays both his
moves as well as his opponent's for certain turns, would then be as
follows: 

1. bW wB / 2. bW bB / 3. wW wB / 4. wW bB / 5. bW bB / 6. wW bB / 7. wW
bB
/ 8. wW wB / 9. wW bB / 10. wW bB

I hope this makes things clearer.
