Subject: adding 'well of wisdom' feature to site
Message: Would it maybe be possible to add a "well of wisdom" (just a name I pulled out of thin air) feature to the site? So that more experience players could leave advice, articles and/or tips for less experienced players? To help us develop?
Cheers,
Convict@Large

Perhaps we could call it "Chess Classroom"? Just a thought, but well of wisdom is great!

Message: something I've mentioned in another thread.
Some great players are very friendly and aldo they dont have much fun doing it, they offer 'lesson games'.
I think it is a waste that such informative lessons are limited to just the oponent (student). I've learned from the likes of galahantine, bafverdefeld, dj222 etc..
We dont have a chess classroom yet but in the meanwhile we can post the board number so that other players can watch the game and read the comments both players make. Dont forget both the teacher and the student must agree in publicizing the lesson on the boards.
Of course, if there was a chess classroom, those demonstration games could be comented, and we could browse the moves back and forward and read what the players were saying.
And I dont mean anotated, that is another diferent story, that is very hard to do, unless someone has software that does this. Bruneti is comenting ccla-gk matches but I fear such extensive and rigorous analysis is a bit out of the scope of beginer players.

Message: is quite easy. You just have to write down the reason why you played the move. What did you want to achieve? Why didn't it work out? What did you overlook? How could it have worked out? etc. When you think about it a bit, it isn't all that hard. A chess program is of course helpful to spot complex tactical mistakes, but it cannot see the intention behind every move (especially when it's a "bad" one - or a really good one that has long-term benefits, for that matter).
I'm all for a chess classroom and would try to contribute enthusiastically! It's still a bit of an abstract idea though. What should it look like? How can Mike implement it? etc...
Fondly,
Richie
