As you may or may not know - Wacky Chess keeps score. Here's the formula for keeping score.
You know the points system some people use in chess? If you don't...
Pawns are worth 1 point
Bishops and Knights are worth 3 points
Rooks are worth 5 points
Queens are worth 9 points
Kings are priceless, but some people call that 3 1/2 points. In Wacky Chess, Kings are 4 points.
Take this points system. This I'll call the defending power. Divide that from 9 and round to the nearest number. This is known as the attacking power.
Take the attacking power * 10 * the number of spaces a piece moves. You get those points for this move.
If you capture someone, then it's 100 points * attacking power * defending power.
If you capture someone, and your opponent captures right back, that's known as a counter-attack and scores points. If the original capturer captures someone right back, it's known as a double-counter and scores more points than the original counter.
If you capture someone, your opponent doesn't, and you capture another piece on the next turn, that's known as a combination and scores points that way.
Now the more technical version:
Pawn:
90 points / space / move
900 points for capturing a pawn
2,700 points for capturing a knight or bishop
4,500 points for capturing a rook
8,100 points for capturing a queen
Bishop and Knight:
30 points / space / move
300 points for capturing a pawn
900 points for capturing a knight or bishop
1,500 points for capturing a rook
2,700 points for capturing a queen
Rook:
20 points / space / move
200 points for capturing a pawn
600 points for capturing a knight or bishop
1,000 points for capturing a rook

Queen:
10 points / space / move
100 points for capturing a pawn
300 points for capturing a knight or bishop
500 points for capturing a rook
900 points for capturing a queen
King: This is an exception - the king has an attacking power of 18 because of it's importance as a piece.
180 points / space / move
1,800 points for capturing a pawn
5,400 points for capturing a knight or bishop
9,000 points for capturing a rook
16,200 points for capturing a queen
Counter attacking scoring schedule:
100 * Multiplier * Number of points scored by both players
Combination scoring schedule:
100 * Multiplier * Number of points scored by both players
Multiplier Schedule:
Starting at 2-hit: 2-3-4-5-7-9-11-13-15-18-21-24-27-... - 7 multiplier = 6 hit, and 18 multiplier = 11 hit
Special Scoring:
Castling - 500
En Passant Capture - 1,000
Check - 5,000
Resignation - 20,000 to the person who the player resigned to
Checkmate - 25,000 (Wacky Chess sometimes says an additional 20,000
points - that's check + checkmate)
Fall bonus: 500 * defending power / fall. Fall multiplier starts at 1.0 and increases by .5 for each piece fallen.
Time bonus:
20 points / second
Life bonus:
1,000 points / piece point left on the board.
43 points left: 100,000 points (All pieces left on the board)
>= 44 points left: 200,000 points (More than all pieces left on the board)

Using moves under 100...
100 or more moves - 0 points
