No.969
No.969 by Sébastien Luce – Double Valladao. (JV)
No.969.1 by Sébastien Luce – A new version to No.969 after comments: White & Black Valladao. (JV)
Definitions:
Maximummer: Black must play the geometrically longest move or may choose from among longest moves of equal length, distances being measured from the center of each square. Diagonal and oblique distances are measured from the orthogonal coordinates by using Pythagora’s theorem (take the square root of the sum of the squares of the orthogonal distances). All other orthodox chess rules apply.
White Maximummer: Only White must play the geometrically longest moves, Black plays orthodoxal.

Nice! It’s very pity that 2nd EP-caprute is Black too; if it would be White then it will be a white-and-black Valladao!
Yes, perhaps it’s really the first realization of double Valladao in fairy genre in monosolution…
In direct mates the double white-and-black Valladao was realized by G. Popov in “FIDE Olympic Tourney 2012” – http://www.yacpdb.org/#342455
little remark:
ep is twice black and not once black,once white as in
two Valladaos it should be.
But great anyway!
Wow! Great task!
Dear Erich, Alexey, M. Seetharaman,
thank you for your comments ! By the way, I am preparing a (big) article on mutiple castling in fairies (fairy piece(s) &/or fairy condition(s). There will be a chapter on double Valladaos.
If you have interesting originals on this subject you can contact me : luceechecs@gmail.com
Best
Sebastien
I think “double maximummer” was an alternate name for this combination of W & B maximummer.
Perfect now!
