(I know, I know, I should be doing BOTH those things during the game!) The possible downside is that annotating after the game, you might think "Why did I make that move?"...thoughts?

Did the current tournament eclipse the events played roughly 150 years ago? Anderssen did not like the playing conditions in 1851. The chairs and tables were too low for him, the chessboard too big and the players were confined to a small place. But the German chess master would have ...
