Implementations of the main variant can vary in regard to stalemate.<ref name=tCVP>{{cite web |last1=Bodlaender |first1=Hans |title=Losing Chess |url=http://www.chessvariants.org/diffobjective.dir/giveaway.html |website=[[The Chess Variant Pages]] |access-date=25 January 2016}}</ref> "International" rules are as described above, with the stalemated player winning even if that player still has pieces on the board. FICS rules resolve stalemate as a win for the player with the fewer number of pieces remaining; if both have the same number, it is a draw (the piece types are irrelevant). "Joint" FICS/International rules resolves stalemate as a draw unless it is a victory for the same player under both rulesets.<ref name=solve /> The stalemate in the diagram is a win for White under "International" rules, a win for Black under FICS rules, and a draw under "joint" rules.
