I was aware that most correspondence leagues have eliminated the "no-computer" rule since it is effectively not enforcable. My point was "what is the purpose of playing a game where you leat the machine dictate every move?" IE I work on a chess program to make it better. I play chess _myself_ when I feel so inclined. I don't consider it interesting to play in a league where everybody uses a computer. Or is human vs human correspondence simply a thing of the past? That is why I don't "get the point"...
