Question, is it okay to use a board to visualize potential moves? I am using the below board as a tool to help myself work out the future moves, but I am not using the computer or any assistive tech.

As organizer of the game, I think that is fine.

I think everyone in this game has been playing pretty well. We're at 17 moves in and the position is rather fascinating. I don't think you should feel shy about making more moves.

Yeah there haven’t been any bad moves, imo.

I'm not quite interested in this. But I am willing to do a blindfold simul against up to 4 opponents. They can use boards if they want, I would visualize without referencing a board.
Go on then. I'll let you embarrass me.

Oh, lol yeah

I mean, taking a hanging knight would pretty much always be the best move so it's no surprise great minds thought alike.
