Go up one level in this thread


I suppose what you propose is a bit like a modern version of handicap chess
(take off a pawn, a knight or a rook at the start depending on the level of the
opponent). Alternatively, handicapping could be achieved by time differentials
-put the computer on blitz and play at tournament time, etc.

Neither has ever really been popular, so I don't suppose your new idea would be
either. Actually, your system would seem hard to work out - since there would be
an almost infinite variety of possible "computer" aids.
Still, food for thought in the future...
