Thanks for this post. Really interesting and directly relevant to me - I have only very occasionally played OTB but a lot of online. Have bookmarked this for future reference :)

I live in the US and it is definitely not always required to bring your own clock, even if they do in certain places.

I really wish they would have the same rule for USCF, because I find it really annoying and very close to "touch move!"
