In other words, 960 is a game and standard is a science.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07314043656698007983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6011690536420808420.post-29978895770067399282020-03-16T09:08:40.405+01:002020-03-16T09:08:40.405+01:00Wonderful news that FIDE is supporting 960 with pl...Wonderful news that FIDE is supporting 960 with plans for a cycle in 2021 and 2023. I think the rapid time format is ideal for 960. Classical time controls are too long for some start positions that strongly imply symmetry and blitz is always too short for all positions. I worry that they will not find a sponsor in hard economic times. After having played nearly ten thousand games of 960 and so have sat in front of all positions roughly ten times, I still think it is an ideal complement to standard chess.HarryOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15971894954907592580noreply@blogger.com
