Write before Move

[relyea]

I played a local TD this weekend who mentioned the rule change requiring players to move before they write their move was on his LTD test last December. I was pretty sure that this was repealed last August. Can someone provide a link to information about this? Also, is this question still on the local TD test?

It wasn’t repealed. They simply clarified that a TD could announce as an acceptable variation “Write followed by Move” for paper scoresheets.
