ADJUDICATION

Up to the 1990s, games not finished within a specified time period were adjudicated by a strong player who determines the outcome of the game.

“Chess is the struggle against the error.” Johannes Zukertort
Chess should not become an obsession. Otherwise there’s a danger that you will slide off into a parallel world, that you lose your sense of reality, get lost in the infinite cosmos of the game. You become crazy. Magnus Carlsen

Once beyond the reaches of computer-aided openings, Carlsen starts to turn the screw. Judith Polgar
FT, 2014
If the FIDe elections were not decided by the votes of the delegates but by the world’s chess society as a whole, there would not even be a competition. Anatoly Karpov
NIC 2010
