The only way I could figure out how to make this work, plus I had to find a game with no castling.  Interesting game though imho.

How does it work the touch and go chess at Chicago ?

billwall

Touch and go is a passerby that comes by and makes a move.  If it is not a real bad loser, the master responds to that move.  Usually one move per passerby.  This is also like the Chess Show when the first caller calls in and makes a move, the player responds, and the next caller gets to make a move.

These old Olympiad posters are pretty cool.  Gonna see if I can track down some more maybe we can make a full set.
