Hi Andy
As those who know me wellI am all for online tournaments, and indeed I find several scottish teams at chess.com and a whole load of players either scottish or claiming scottish kinship. I personally think this is an area which can be developed within Chess Scotland as I feel online chess is growing. However, like you I feel i am in the minority here. I dont buy any arguments that it is unworkable and I also think it can address the geographical issues that Scotland faces with inter-regional and remote participation. It is some as home director I am hoping to develop as well. perhaps if you joined the home director board we can work together on this
