Russell, > >Do you consider pre-move to be a cheat? yes i do but not what you do there is certain client software that can be added to the gui that will allow a player to make a move even before he knows your move i do not know all of the details but the player actually completes his move and waits for yours as soon as your move is made ,his is made ,using no time on the clock at all it is a gamble for the player because he could be ignoring a simple mating threat, but in 99% of the cases with precious few moments left, in a time scramble, both players are just racing against the clock and not really making threats or parrying threats this is different from what you do you are making a 1/2 move and then waiting to see if its reasonable you are using at least some time.albiet it a small amount of time i am not against trying to make a move as fast as you humanly can,i am only against using a pre-move client and unless the server allows it,i think its cheating Steve
