I had an epiphany too.
I was thinking: "Hmmm...how do thoughts and feelings inter-relate with the actual possible moves of the pieces and accounting for the interactions of all of the pieces from the beginning of a game until the end of a game?"
I didn't know the answer, but I think I am on to something.
A thought or feeling about a chess position either matches the reality of the position or does not match. This must be where successful planning and errors originate. Just thinking out loud here.
All of the pieces will either be used to some degree or not used to some degree during the course of a game. There is the now and the later. Positions transform one move at a time.
Interesting.
Turns out it was not so much an epiffany as I thought...so here is another idea :)
Live chess...I d'ont know if the option exists or not, I did not suscribe, but can you make a match that specifies a certain oppening?
I have been dying to try a new line in live chess because its wild and crazy...but every single time I play d4, the response is always d5! Sometimes its Nf6, but after my Nc3, its d5 again...Its really annoying me.
