For composing tournaments - do you add the themes in your letter?


When sending a problem to a composing tournament, do you write the themes of your problem so that to save time for the judge? (Because having worked on your problem a long time you are rather acquainted with its specifics) Or the judge will gladly do all the work on his own?

Though it's never demanded, I don't think it hurts to do so, Oliver - and to point out other salient constructional points. Judges can easily ignore such observations if they wish.

The only time I was judge I first solved the diagrams
without any other information, and read the description
only afterwards. Even if modernist and complicated -
a good problem speaks for itself.
But it's still a good idea to add a description of the theme.

Thanks. I thought so but I was not sure.
