I seem to remember mentions of a holotank (which Corwin took apart during his younger years) in the briefing room of the gods. Could very well be that Odin uses -that- to keep track of things in three dimensions, as it were. (Granted it probably has a great deal more than three dimensions available for display options, but three just sounds better.)
Course it's also possible that the entire chessboard thing is just a metaphor and we're vastly overanalyzing it. Occam and his ol' shiv would probably agree with the latter theory.
