Correspondence Chess, anyone?

[Whispers]

Correspondence chess = Chess played via correspondence.??Meaning that rather than playing over a board or video board (like when playing online) opponents rather send in their moves by way of some type of messaging system; be it mail, text, telephone, E-mail, PM, here in a thread, even homing pigeon.??Hell, you could write your move in the sky if you had the ability.??It's pretty much playing chess when not at the board.??Even two people who share a house can play.??Say, Jack wakes up in the morning and sees Jill's left a note reading, "f6 (that is, the sixth column to the left, sixth row down - from the light side, as that is the side we read from)," and sees a pawn resting on f6 (pawns are not notated with a letter like P).??He moves his bishop to f6, taking her pawn.??He leaves a note reading, "Bxf6 (Bishop captured a piece at f6)."

Everything else we're talking about is all strategy.??You'd have to study all that to make sense of it because I'm not going to try to explain it.??I need to go to bed soon.??xp
