Hello again,

In Portoroz, Tadashi Wakashima introduced Haunted Chess for his Japanese
Sake Tourney.
Here is how it works :
in a capture, a ghost of the captured piece stays on the capture square; the
piece reappears once the capturing piece moves again;
in case of several ghosts on the same square (i.e. consecutive captures),
the older ones definitely disappear; only the more recent is subject to
"reappearance";
in the special case of en passant, the ghost square can be passed through
but not occupied until the "reappearance" (when the capturing pawn moves
again).

There were 2 SPGs in the award (of course not C+). Here they are :

2nd Prize :

Best,
Michel
