Inputting illegal moves


Answer

Question:  In tournaments for younger age groups, it can happen that an irregular move is sometimes made but no one protests and the game is continued (and typically at some point the position again becomes “regular”). Till now the way of handling this was that from the irregular move on the game was entered in the form of a annotation, which of course takes up a lot of time. Is there some way to enter irregular moves and thus faulty games, either with ChessBase or Fritz?


Answer: At the moment there is no simple way to achieve that. An alternative would consist of saving the game in two parts. Firstly as far as the illegal move, then setting up on the board the actual position, explaining the illegal move in the dialog and entering the rest of the game from this position.
