Regium: Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence

@Panagrellus i think the classic one is standard Wenge DGT that i would also be able to buy if that was cheaper and supported by lichess :)
That DGT eboard (not sure which model as there is newer with BlueTooth) has microUSB plug in the A1 corner :)

I have a question for the more tech oriented people here... Would a chessboard like Regium be possible? Is it technically feasible in the near future? Can it be built for a normal prize?
I hear different stories. I would hope a company like DGT or even a large technical firm would take up this effort.
If I see the interest on all the chess sites I think it could be a profitable market and more than a niche market. This would be not only extremely nice for chess players but also as something to just have as a show piece in your home. And I think also about chess clubs, schools, libraries?!

A lot of the people backing it might not be even chess players, so they might never even see threads like these.

I was talking about this with my friend... even if regium did somehow make this board, the fact that that you can't use it with lichess means that I wouldn't buy it anyway.

@sommerswerd Who would Buy a 700 € Chess board and not be a chess player?

@morozov a lot of better of people want a nice chessboard in their house, they often choose a artistic one. A board a real chess player would not like :)

I could imagine that some retailers do. They see their marketing video and buy some.

I have dived deep into the 610 kick-comments and made the Mats' LMAO printscreen for the next generations:

[LMAO is an old, USENET, acronym that stands for laughing my ass off :) - dear reader compare it to the meaning of LOL and ROTFL ]

And that deep zone also shows that the comments have been moderated by hand or by a request - there are still a few duplicates.
