In addition to "hovering" being impropper in chess, writing the moves is obligatory. In backgammon we have the opposite - "hovering" has been defended by Directors and leading players. But nobody introduced writing up of moves untill we have recording boards, camcorder recordings and paid human recorders. What a shame and disrespect for the game. I guess all this is to protect the "gambling game" status of the game. As if it was some kind of valor.
