IYT's version of the game was incorrectly set up. Three is no reasno to continue the error at other sites just because IYT did so in the first place. You seem concerned about having to play here with the restriction, no doubt because you are used to playing without it. That is precisely the problem! People are now resistant to playing the game the proper way because of how thye learned it at IYT.
Without the restriction, a player can make a potential on his first two moves. The restriction breeds an entirely different set of opening moves, and people who learn to play without the restriction have great difficulty to playing with it. Playing with the restriction is mandatory for any serious pente play, and is crucial for any player hwo is attempting to become a good pente player. FOr those who are not serious pente players or do not have an interest in becoming a strong pente player, what difference does it make if they use the resdtriction? Thisi s what I don;t really understand. The serious players and serious play require the restriction, and non-serious players shouldn;t care, because they aren;t serious about it!
So either way, I am not clear on who is hurt by having the restriction.
Again, I'll give my chess example. If you elarned to play chess such that the king can move two spaces insteado f one, you would be in bad shape when playing chess correctrly. BUt, just because you have become accustomed to this rule doesn't mean it should not be corrected. Will there be an adjustment period? Sure! But why is that a bad thing?
