I have. It seems impossible at first but once you get the hang of the visualisation it gets much easier. I'm still pretty bad compared to non-blindfolded though.

I also have. I haven't practiced in a while though. Usually having good memory of different positions will help you the most in blindfold.

I've tried playing without a board. I couldn't finish the game though.
