Originally posted by MarsIIHow is it not advice? If someone tells you it's lost, they're advising you to resign. If they tell you it's not lost, they're advising you to dig deep and find the moves that can save you. Either way you look at it, it is outside assistance, which is expressly forbidden. Think of it this way: If you were playing this game at an actual tournament, would you call your friends over to your board and ask them if the position was lost? Would you do it in full view from the tournament director?
It's not advice if you just happen to post on a forum wether you see the position as being lost or not 😛
doesn't have to be aimed at anyone, just typing a post to yourself in this thread 😛
