Frank, what do your rules have to say about this? Should he be deducted points, and if so, what would his right of appeal be?

Yes, huge mistake. I 'll take my points deduction. There will be no appeal.

If Ed/Justin Horton ever comes back on this board again then I’m more than happy to set up a game (or even a series of matches) of chess with him.
