In Response To: Good Practice Provisions for Blind or Visually Impaired Players (Rick Janowski)

"If during a game the player wishes to know clock times, the opponent should provide this information at the start of the player's roll"

I would add, "The player should not ask during the opponent's think time".

"When moving the checkers the player should take great pains to guard against illegal plays by avoiding shuffling the checkers backwards and forwards, so that at the end of the move the player is able to state clearly the move made."

Did you switch away from "the player" always meaning the blind player in this paragraph?
