Clock simuls
[edit]Just curious - does anyone know what time controls are usually used for clock simuls? I tried looking for the time control used in the Kasparov vs. Czech national team event from a few years back but couldn't find anything. youngvalter 01:17, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
Distance
[edit]Has anyone ever written of the distances covered by the Simul-giver? Walking might be the most difficult part of a Simultaneous for most chess masters. Depending on the layout of the boards, a master might cover miles in a few hours.Abenr (talk) 15:35, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
- I just went to a simul (30 players vs the GM) and I don't think each lap required walking more than 25 meters. Sixty moves would make it 1500 m, which is not even one mile. I don't think walking a mile slowly would be strenuous to most people. But like you say, it depends on the layout. One could imagine a bigger event in an open space where the boards are more separated... --Itub (talk) 13:43, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
Go and other non-chess games
[edit]The lede mentions Go and other games, but the rest of the article is exclusively about chess.
It would be nice to get some info on other kinds of simultaneous exhibition. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2620:0:1045:FD00:90B5:9D95:CB18:22E1 (talk) 14:39, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
