The "nullmove castling" was discussed here. King and rook have to jump each other making FRC castling, so the "full-nullmove" castling is impossible. But something like "half-nullmove" exists. Before castling Kg1 Rh1, after castling Kg1 Rf1. Crazy, the king didn't move making such a move. And the most interesting and funny question - if the king didn't move making such a nullmove castling, is the second castling possible in one game? I think there is clear answer NO. The FRC is developed as classical chess extension with the idea to keep the most of it's concepts. And the second castling has not the spirit of classical chess. Emil http://www.vlasak.biz/ev960.htm
