"Is this person cheating?" is a bad question. Ask "How can we declare Fair Play?" Seek any excuse to support our assumption - all players are Fair. Only if we cannot find any evidence, we must reluctantly admit our environment and supervision has failed, then declare unfair play.

Could you win as black from here?

Not a bad lineup for any event.... 354 players entered, getting ready to start!

So proud of the African Schools players.... no connection problems and everyone playing fair. Building trust in the African chess community! This will be the first of many online events on the continent.

Arbiters will love these questions from players during an event: "my opponent keeps turning his head" "i am triying to mve the picese but i cant" (yeah, because you just called the arbiter and paused the game) "How do I offer a draw" (when Q, B, N, PPPP down in material)

Is stalemate a draw in Take-me Chess or does the player with fewer pieces win?

Thanks Marco Biagioli for the nice write up (page 16) in the @ECUonline magazine. madmagz.com/magazine/18313…

Congratulations to all players!
