| | (1) Posted by Geir Sune Tallaksen Østmoe [Sunday, Aug 2, 2015 21:58] | Background for choosing stipulations for White Does anyone know what the background is for the fact that the stipulation is always from White's point of view? (White mates in 2, White to play and win, White forces a selfmate etc.) When did it become the rule? Was there any particular reason, other than being practical to always use the same colour? | | (2) Posted by seetharaman kalyan [Monday, Aug 3, 2015 11:45] | hm... after all White starts the game ! | | (3) Posted by Hauke Reddmann [Sunday, Aug 9, 2015 20:19] | And of course the mythological stuff - White stands always* for
the good guy and thus has to win.
