Power to Chessup! (& Other digital chess boards.)

In the fair play policy it is forbidden to have outside assistance with the excuse of having a level playing field. With digital chess boards similar to the Chessup Chess boards this creates an unlevel playing field as you must spend your own time moving the opponents pieces, disrupting your thought process & possibly losing the game depending on the amount of moves that have been played. Despite there being a very easy solution which is to have a friend move the opponents pieces, it is against the Fair Play Policy to do so. The Fair Play Policy should be reviewed to promote the innovation of Chess within the digital chess board market. I believe users of digital chess boards may or will use this form of outside assistance but by having it written in the policy it would be a statement that welcomes future innovation of chess & promotes fair play to those who wish to use a digital chess board. It would be a minor adjustment in the policy that will not do harm & only good for the community. Those who look for outside assistance other than this form will already do so without this adjustment to the policy being made.
