Hi Jim and all,

I totally agree with you.
We should play our chess games just like we play any other game, the best we can and with whatever knowledge we have at the time of the game. We all are always learning and becoming better players with the problems Richard sends to the list, with the chess articles Rod sends to the list, and from our past games. To me, there is no better way of learning than from our past experiences and mistakes.

Chris

Hi,
I don't think that we should get help from chess books or other materials
with playing the current game. I think we should try to play our current
game with the knowledge we have at the time. I feel that after the game, it would be OK to go back over that game and do a post mortem. The reason I say this is that you don't have that luxury in an over the board game, and since the only types of games we're playing are correspondence games, I feel that
we should treat them like over the board games and just bring what we have
at the time.

Thanks.

Jim

Hi, Johannes.

You make an interesting point with your modification. I, though, disagree.
Because of the nature of correspondence chess, any of us can learn new
moves/tactics from our general chess study that we didn't know at the
beginning of our games.  Citing a source  which we consulted could be an
optional addition to a postmortem review of the game or as a reference in
dispute ajudication. However, for general play, it seems cumberome during
the game.
