To gain creditability these games should be played in public (on the chess club or so) so everybody can see what you are doing. I understand it's an obstacle but it is my reason not to participate in this tournament. The operator can do what he want as there is no control. He can override moves, change the time control, force a move he likes and and and. Another way (although it solves not eveything) is that somebody else (the TD) is send the program before the games and carefully checks the moves. I think playing serious tournaments on Internet has a great future. More it has the power to become a serious counterpart for the yearly world championship computer chess if these kind of things are arranged well. Ed >JW
