How about no analysis board and touch move only.  Timed to 3 days per move Is it possible?

Since Live Chess tournaments are apparently soon to be available, the Analysis Board will presumably NOT BE ACCESSIBLE during those games.

In general, a number of things have to be taken on trust on chess.com. Even if the Analysis Board is unavailable, what is stop someone setting up a physical board to explore alternatives?

If you create a tournement with specify conditions attached - as some people do (e.g. Game Explorer is NOT to be used), I would trust the vast majority of participants to play by those rules.

A difficulty with this is that TOUCH MOVE is currently a global option - it applies to ALL of your games. If someone had to play touch move during a specific tournement - but wanted to play 2-stage-confirm move for other games, constantly changing the option manually would become a nightmare.

I see It would be interesting tp play with a pre agreed no analis board and no other chess board.  I agree with my friend karl touch is tough since a piece can be dropped.  Besides where else can you play with so much assistance  Game exp anal board etc.  ( and I still stink)
