How to record yourself playing in a tournament

I think that ultimately there needs to be more online tournaments that don’t have the onerous requirement of recording oneself just to participate. There are a lot competitive contexts (like when prizes are not up for grabs) where such things simply are not worth it.

I hope that more tournaments will take a more casual approach, and that people will “vote with their feet” for that alternative

In reality I think there is likely to be a mix - some tournaments which mandate video recording for all players, some which don’t mandate it at all, and some which mandate it for top players only.

Within Europe for example, and where results are being submitted to the European Go Database for official ratings, it may depend on what class the tournament is (and therefore how much weighting the results have).
