Fide Chess Announcement: Norms Before July 1, 2005 to Expire if Not Registered before July 1, 2013
Chess blog for latest chess news and chess trivia (c) Alexandra Kosteniuk, 2013
Hello everyone,
Here is the latest Fide announcement for chess players: Due to move of offices and upgrading of computers and technical software and hardware in the past 20 years, it has been an onerous task to verify norms achieved from old tournaments based on the then prevailing title regulations when the tournaments took place. Instead of tracking old regulations and old tournament results whenever an application is received, the QC recommended that norms achieved prior to 1st July 2005 be registered before 1st July 2013. Failing which, the norm will be considered to have expired. In addition with readily available information from the recent years, the QC hopes to move towards automation of title awards as soon as possible. The PB approved the recommendation of the QC.
