Does the Bongcloud deserve to be a book opening?

Sort:
JackRoach

So I've posted several forums called "The Bongcloud Deserves to be a Book Opening!!!" but few responded. I think that this was bc it wasn't a question, and people don't know what they say, if you know what I mean.

Now I'm making this a question, and share your thoughts and opinions. Notice I am NOT saying "Is the Bongcloud a good opening?" (and I'm not saying it's bad either to bongcloud lovers..." What I am saying is the title. My opinion is yes, the Bongcloud deserves to be a book opening.

To both bump up the forum and to prove my point, I will post some openings that deserve just as much (or less) than the bongcloud deserves to be. Please be open-minded. If you disagree with me or anyone else, then make your points, and please don't be rude to others.

The bongcloud is way more known than these book openings I am posting, so why isn't it a book??

All these openings... considered book openings. Why not the bongcloud??

As much as I want it to be considered "a brilliancy" that'll just wreck chess.com analysis so I'm fine with book opening grin.png

That's not even a question, the answer is definitely YES

Everyone says yes. I agree, so WHY IS IT NOT A BOOK OPENING???? We should petition!!!!!

Imo it should be considered both a book opening and a blunder at the same time (if that's possible?)

Hmm... well chess.com engine currently thinks it is a mistake. Obviously wrong, the bongcloud is a very complex and if a stinking piece of silicon begs to differ with the exalted ruy lopez and sicilian lines, then maybe stockfish needs to be fixed.
