This is your chess problem on drugs


Seeing chess problems as an art: there are enough artists that
took drugs for "inspiration", and equal as many who claim
drugs ruin their artistic abilities.

Seeing chess problem as a sport: Since we are technically
a part of the FIDE, forbidden substance tests should be
possible in international events (as in OTB, computer use
would be the much larger issue).

A)You surely will have encountered some chess problem # where
you ask yourself "Good grief, what did the dude smoke?" :-)
but do you know of problems *actually* made while on drugs?

B)I never was on an international composing competition,
what are the regularies (but especially regarding computers)
on "doping"?


Disclaimer: Drugs are baaaaaad, I don't touch anything
(including alcohol) but I seem to firmly fall under # :-)

"including alcohol"
That's why I don't find any problems of yours in the album.

Without doubt our old friends Caffeine and Nicotine have contributed to many a masterpiece.

Iirc this one was at least finished whilst on pot (or something), but I can't remember -or find- where I read this, so it may be slander:

Pál Benkö
Berliner Morgenpost
