The relaying system wasn't manual; it was integrated with the board, so when sensors detected a move, a program would automatically broadcast it.Why they didn't, or couldn't, just reset the frikking machine, is beyond me. Perhaps they don't manufacture "reset" buttons in Bulgaria?
They Mayor either hadn't a clue, or wasn't informed of just how crappy the software was!
Now the chess community will forever remember as "the Borisov Gambit" (after the Mayor's name) those two particular illegal opening moves that left thousands of chess funs wondering just what was happening...
(Why they didn't just email the moves? I guess they hardly have computers over at M-Tel's...)
Why didn't they just aim the frikking cameras themselves?
