Originally posted by Paladin57 I want to thank all of you for your comments and insight. Our game started today with Pete making his first move and already his other cousin wants to join in on the fun.
I thought of possibly suggesting a move here or there for him but have decided I dont want to do that for him. Rather, I want him to find/learn them himself...that is not to say after ...[text shortened]... or some time and now, distance will not be an issue. Take care, good luck in all your games 🙂

The advice wouldn't come from a third party, so I can't see how it would be against the terms of service.
I agree with you. I was wrong in my previous statement.
