Thanks Steve!
With computer engines available to everybody, correspondence chess makes little sense. Here we have 1600-1800 level players getting titles for using their computers against other peoples’ computers.
If you think it’s all about playing computer against computer – I invite you and your computer to play against me and my fellow CC players… Join an ICCF event and perhaps you can prove your point.
