Wouldn't the upgrade/research problems be solved if teams were forced to pick symmetric races? (P/T vs T/P, T/Z vs Z/T) This way your ally would always get units of his same race for which he can research/update anything.

I also think the static defense penalty mentioned early in this thread should be considered (destroying a static defense building gives your ally the building's cost).

I haven't played this game yet. But comparing it to the chess variation where the idea came from I see one main difference: In Bughouse chess, you can choose when to use the pieces you get from your teammate. If the civilian was some sort of building/training mobile unit you could choose not only where but also when to use your extra units, saving you from supply problems.
What does not kill you makes you stronger.

Although I have not played this map, I get the feelings its going to boil down to a ZvZ without mutas.

Who's up for fixing the research bugs? (gols not having range when transferred, unable to unsiege tanks, unable to make more than 4 interceptors etc..)

You could conceivably make it so that whenever your ally's enemy builds a tech building, an invincible version of it appears for you somewhere out of the way in the middle of the map, that you can purchase the upgrade from without spending time building up the race from a stolen peon. It'd be pretty much the same triggers were using now but with a special location for each building, and not preserved.

To get an idea of the work that would mean for whoever is interested, that's 1 trigger for every tech building for every race for every player... Not forgetting a pylon to power the protoss ones (which is kind of an unfair extra supply if you choose protoss as your race).

Yeah, but just ask people on actual irc ( http://www.teamliquid.net/irc/ ) because most people in op irc are just afk.

What if you didn't make the buildings at the beginning of the game? What if they were put into place ~5 minutes into the game, and subtracted 100 minerals from a P player (to compensate for psi)?

This does pose a bigger problem with lurker tech, since you do need supply for it.....

They can't be fixed by changing the map.

should just make it so that you play the mirror race matchups: ie PZ vs ZP, so that you never run into upgrade issues

Oh, and we discussed the siege tank thing. We just thought it would be more in the spirit of bughouse to keep them in siege

Why not just give each player all the upgrades of the other races at the start of the game? That doesn't seem like it would cause any major problems.
Of course, you only live one life, and you make all your mistakes, and learn what not to do, and that’s the end of you.
