The motion to eliminate dual ratings, as a way of keeping the regular and quick ratings separate, failed overwhelmingly when the 30-65 minute period that is currently dual rated was going to be changed to quick rated only. Before quick rating even existed a G/30 time control was regular rated and the delegates were almost unanimously against that change.

Thanks for the information, Tim. It is good that you can keep Executive Board voters informed of government decisions.

Ken,

Thanks for those nice words.

Good Chess,

Tim

Looking forward to when the chapter 9 correspondence chess rules updates will be announced.
