Chess Match: Shady Bill vs. Skybird - Page 8

Skybird · 10-06-22, 08:33 AM

Rules as announced in the other chess thread and if Bill does no object (LINK): No active chess engines. Theory books allowed, if desired, its quite common in correspondence chess, since always, theoretical studying always has been part of CC. Personally I will not use databases on PC or chessbase servers, but will not object to Bill using such help: the line between books and databases is a bit difficult to draw. I will use the Chessbase Fritz GUI without active engine and without open statistics windows to log the match and create position diagrams. In all other regards the software will be "off", passive.

Audience comments, friendly jokes are fine as long as they do not provide aid, tips for the players, suggested future moves.

We already had such matches in General Topics back in 2008.

Your move: 1. e2-e4 My move: 1. .../ d7-d6
