As a lot of games are to be played with a lot of entries, I wonder whether
these games are to be documented.  Certainly, for my own two entries I
would like a record of the games played to become published if that is
possible please, so that the games acquire a literature of their own;
maybe other authors perhaps feel the same about their entries as well.

An interesting aspect is as to whether games should be published as soon
as they are played or whether publication should be left until after the
judging is completed, so that a game played by two players does not
influence the approach to play by another two players.  If the latter,
which is what I would somewhat prefer, then it might then be interesting
to observe the different approaches to play by various players from a
standing start with no prior published games to influence them.

New chess variants have the interesting feature that there is no published
history of games with that particular configuration of pieces, so not only
are there no standard openings and standard defences but also there is
scope for the possibility that some may arise!
