Game Notes

Game notes are amazing because they are basically conditional moves that are not set. In other words, they are not automatic but manual conditional moves because they are preplanned from notes that one takes. In one way, they are contrary to conditional moves because one could figure out that he or she set a conditional, even if it is concealed. However, the opponents cannot tell if one takes game notes. That is because the player is the only one that could see the game notes. In addition, it is great if one is away from the computer for hours but does not want to set a vacation flag. That way, he or she knows knows what immediate moves should be made because they are immediately reminded since the game notes stand out. Basically, it is the first thing the player sees when he or she comes back to the computer. This refers to what candidates should be made after the opponent has made a move since it is the opponents move. Unlike conditional moves, game notes could be changed if they are inaccurate before they become harmful in a chess game. That is why, they could be back up plans, if the conditional moves become inaccurate, the preplanned moves are inaccurate, in my opinion. Therefore, Game notes are my third favorite feature on this site.

I generally use them

If I set a trap, so that if my opponent falls into it, I don't forget what to play.

Use Game Analysis

I play through lines in game analysis mode, then use the first 2 moves as conditional. Beyond 2 moves I find I miss things I would have caught. The combination of analysis mode, game notes and conditional moves are very effective for me.
