If you’re playing chess travelling & change timezones should you add/subtract 1 hour to both clocks?

If you’re playing chess on an airplane and go through different timezones should you add/subtract one hour to both clocks?

(subject has 100 character limit apparently which is why the questions a bit different here)

Ummm... no

Why not?

No, your local time is irrelevant - game time is what counts. Once the game starts, the clocks run down without any adjustment.

On the other hand, you may want to adjust your watch . . .

When you play a game of chess your clock isn’t a real clock. It is just a timer. It doesn’t matter what time it is IRL

This guy is joking around.

This is why I don't play chess in the fall, I lose an hour.

It's all relative. 

bunny, you beat me to it. I was going to ask if the airplane could approach the speed of light, how would that affect the time controls?

That would be a spaceship and you could come back younger than you were. Outlive your opponent.

So if you play chess on a roundabout in a playground and sit on the outside while it spins and your opponent sits in the centre you actually have fractionally less time than them.

This explains why Ding Liren and Carlsen disconnect so much. They are top GMs and are at the center of the chess world.

Haha true

Yes, but only if it means @knightscape007 runs out of time and loses

So, coronavirus is an anti-cheating measure because it prevents us from traveling?
