Sensory Boards
#13
'master game' commentary was meant more to mean the sort of commentary of what a player was thinking about during the game itself rather than necessarily a GM level explanation of the moves played.

I do think that the sensory boards could be used for post-match analysis and I make this point having listened to some of the same on Chessbase.

Clearly any commentary or post-analysis must be pitched at the right level and allowing messaging enables those following to let the commentator know if more explanation is reqd.

It is another reason why having games from Major or Minor covered as clearly the explanation of what is and should be happening would be completely different from an Open game.

By adding commentary or analysis I think it also makes playing on a sensory board more attractive to players as well - they're getting training - and hence would help justify the extra entry fee charge or bid?
