Hi Lyman! Quick answer!

Maybe annotating games is not so important as I first thougth. It's
likely that the games that deserves to be saved are the games of the
finals. And in these cases are spectators that can do that without
disturbing the players.

I think that an e-mail tournament would help Unlur to be more
popular among the e-mail players.
I also like the idea of having a bi-annual on-line tournament and a
bi-annual e-mail tournament. What do you think?. However the e-mail
tournament on a 8-size board seems to be too much long.
