@phrenzy1 - This wasn't lightning chess, it was a full length match game with the old time controls of 40 moves in 2 and a half hours, followed by 16 moves in an hour thereafter. They were rushing to make the second time control at move 56 with both players having very little time. Also, this was day 2 of this game - in games using these time controls, they were adjourned after 5 hours of play.

It looks like they're playing allegro or lightning, it's been along time since I played competition chess, not since I was 12 but I never imagined seeing players at this level being so fast to check the timer and move peices, especially when they then take time to write and think, is it a partial psychological thing?...how long are the matches anyhow?

What's the point of making check marks? Why not just leave they're moves blank?

Petemackenshaw the players get to choose what kind of chair they want to have during play.

@Petemackenshaw The players probably get to choose a chair.
Altough I'm not sure how they do this. Do they just receive a catalogue of chairs and select one? lol
-
Why are their chairs different from each other?

If they have the time, they're writing down their moves. If they're in time pressure, they're just making check marks next to the move number to make sure they make the time control.
