Don’t Be cRule – New Post Series

Update 14-Jan-25 - I changed these rule posts into pages (linked at the right), so this post space can be less cluttered, and reserved for tournament updates and other dynamic items...  I will leave this one post up so you can find the rest, and I will bring it to the top as I post new items.

--------------

I’ll occasionally be posting on rules matters that show up in WCC or other local events as TDs discuss them. 

I hold a Local TD certification but there are a number of Senior TDs in our local rota, and I certainly rely on them when necessary (with attribution). 

I’ll usually cover one or two topics in each post, and I’ll try to begin with OTB ground rules and common scenarios. Even if you’re an experienced player, it may help (or even save you ½ point here and there) to be well acquainted with these… 

Items on my initial list to cover include:

• Getting rulings during a game
• How to offer a draw properly
• How to claim a draw properly (not the same thing as above...)
• Keeping score, taking notes, electronic scoresheets

I seem to have gotten through most of these, let me know what you want to see next.  If not, I'll probably resort to these:

• How does the Swiss system and pairings work
• How the rating system works
• Explaining the USCF class and "title" systems

You can always drop me a line at chess@demastri.com if you want to see anything covered.

WCC Lending Library Is Available

Hi Chess People!  

Really excited to tell you that due to some very gracious donations and the patience and work of Jim Nickell, the WCC has a lending library available for you to use.

We use LibraryThing to manage the collection.  You don't need to sign up for anything.  Just click that link and you should see the WCC Lending Library Collection on the library page.  I also put a permanent link to the Lending Library in the Links section on the blog.

We have just short of 150 books for you to use.  The process is simple.  

1. Browse the library and look for a book you'd like to read
• There's a search box in the top right corner
• I've tried to tag books as best I can (lmk if you think I've gotten something wrong)
• The tags I used are:
• tactics, openings, strategy, endgame, game collection, tournament, biography, history, instruction-beginner, instruction-general, instruction-advanced, checkers, novel
• There's some tradeoff between keeping the number of categories both descriptive and small - if you think there's something better, let me know
2. Comment here or send me an email at chess@demastri.com saying that you'd like to borrow a book.
3. We'll use our regular Wed meetings to deliver / return books.  I'll bring the book to the next meeting for you to pick it up.  If there's lots of volume or demand, I'll see about something more automated.
4. When you're done (we can start with a 28 day window to read the book), bring the book back and you're done!  Let me know if you want to keep the book longer.  

We have everything from openings, strategy, tactics, many game and tournament collections - even a checkers book and a novel!  (amazingly not Queen's Gambit, though...anyone want to donate their copy?)  Unfortunately, some are in descriptive notation, and a couple are in Russian or Polish (or some other crazy language...).  Ask if you have questions about anything.

If you want to read something not in the library, just let me know - I'll search my library and ask around...  the board might even buy a book here and there for something that might be generally useful (my thoughts, not the board's....)

Who reads books when everything's online?  Lots of people.  Not all of us are 100 years old.  Sometimes having a paper book allows you to focus a little more.  Sometimes it's just easier to organize your thoughts with a book next to a real board.  If you're under 20, try it!!  You might like it!

Some of the commentary (opening tracts, esp.) may be a little dated, but guess what?  Your opponent isn't likely playing 30 moves of the latest theory in the Benko (for example).  Reading Pal Benko's thoughts on the opening, even from his 1973 book, will likely give you a deeper understanding of the IDEAS behind the opening than a 2024/5 Chessbase dump of 2700+ GM games will.  Ideas rarely go out of style, and when you're out of book (lol - see what I did there) at move 4, they're all you really have left.  Give some of these a try!

And if you don't happen to read books anymore...think about donating the 4 shelves of books I know you have to WCC - I'll get them loaded and tagged for others to read.  A book on a shelf is fun to look at, but there's nothing more exciting than seeing a kid (well, anyone, but especially a kid) with that book in their hands actually reading.

Like all things - let me know if you have any thoughts or ideas about this.  See you Wed.

WCC Late Fall Swiss - Final Results

Hi all: Please find below the final results for this event.

Congrats to Abraham for a 2152 performance rating, and a clean win in the Open section. Very well done - you were 1.5 points clear of an 1800 norm if you'd have been able to play the last round, and a 2000 norm was in reach with a round 4 win. More to work for :) Congrats in the open section to Shravan as well for scoring 2.5 (no byes) and a performance rating of about 1709! Well done

Congrats to Devyanshu, Michael B and Shashwath for a three-way tie for first in the Reserve section. Very well done to you all, as well.

Please see the final USCF rating report below. These are always available in the MSA section of the US Chess website, this is the link for this report. I've modified the tables we use here to show most of the information displayed in that report. I will use this format going forward.

Remember, next week, Kevin is running a rated Quick Quad (G25, iirc), so drop your family in front of the TV, and come play chess!!

Thanks - John D
