Motion 1 (wording to go to Council)

[Kevin Mayo]

Kevin,
You moan about having to move both sets of pieces on the board on the rare occasion that you play a blind/visually impaired player and you say that are severely disadvantaged. As a Visually handicapped player, I have to move both sets of pieces for the rest of my life. Now tell me who has the severe disadvantage
No you are not on a brand new set of circumstance. You played me in a Glasgow League match a number of years ago

Awesome.
Moaning? Nice turn of phrase. No, not moaning. Moaning would be something like

It is ridiculous, totally unfair and discriminatory that i have to play someone who is "visually impaired" (to some degree or other) as I am severely disadvantaged by:
1. ....etc

Instead, I simply asked a question.


"I have to move both sets of pieces for the rest of my life. Now tell me who has the severe disadvantage"
Yup, you miss the point entirely.

I'll tell you again who has the severe disadvantage.
I have the severe disadvantage.
If you can't work out why, it's point 3 in my original post.
Actually, it's points 1, 2, 3 and 4.
