Personally, I bought a couple of notation books with room for 50 games each for $2-$3 bucks each, so I can more easily go over my old games. | |
| Feb 1, 2018 at 22:04 | comment | added | JaKuzhi | That makes much more sense. And last question, just for full clarification. I understand that we are supposed to take full notation of the game until either I or my opponent has 5 minutes left in the game. Are these score sheets provided or do we bring our own? | |
| Feb 1, 2018 at 21:17 | comment | added | D M | "And each move adds 5 seconds to your time?" - Not quite. The clock won't start until 5 seconds have elapsed. You don't gain two seconds if you move in three seconds, but no time will come off your clock. | |
| Feb 1, 2018 at 21:13 | comment | added | JaKuzhi | Thank you for the quick reply! Longer timed games are already relatively rare, do you have any suggestions on finding games that would be comparable to the tournament? And just for my clarification, does "40 moves/2 hours, SD/1 hour, 5 second delay" mean, 40 moves within 2 hours, and unlimited moves until the additional hour is used? And each move adds 5 seconds to your time? | |
