FIDE rules >_never_ back up a game... kind of off-topic, but this is wrong! in human chess, if one player makes an illegal move and neither player notices it at the moment when it's made, but one player or perhaps the arbiter notices it later, you back up to the position before the illegal move. i've seen this happen in a swiss tournament. there is the remote possibility that the swiss chess federation has different rules than fide, but i doubt it. cheers martin
