From: alexei hawaii rr com Date: 06 aug 2007 Subject: Re: Adjourned Games From what I understand, they are not supposed to get outside help or even analyze the game during adjournment, although I don't know how the latter could possibly be enforced (it is just by the honor system). I remember years ago when Mori was playing a title match against Habu, during the lunch break Mori looked at the TV screen of the board position. If that wasn't breaking the rules, it could be seen at least as a faux pas, though nobody did anything about it.
