nactate an entire game?

I have tried a little. Opening and middle game seems to work very well - basically whenever different plays follow different plans, there usually is one or more ways to nactate each play.

Where it gets difficult is where all plays follow the same plan, with slight differences. Typically, in a race bear-in, you may well have a dozen plays that tries to bear in as flexibly as possible, where the only real difference is exatly which points you put the checkers on. But, as Nack himself says, nactation isn't all or nothing, you can always fall back on long notation, whenever you feel that no nactation letter is good enough to describe the play.
