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 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
