The selection committee has been set to work and should be submitting their picks soon.

[Ken Craft]

Who are the members of the selection team?

[Hal Bond]

Hi Ken;

The committee members are Vlad Pechenkin, Yan Teplitsky and Natalia Khoudgarian.

[Ken Craft]

Thanks Hal.

[Ilia Bluvshtein]

As Fred McKim pointed out, Zhe Quan is eligible to play for the team. Zhe played 6 more FIDE rated games recently and has now 14 games played over the last year. His Final Selection Rating remained unchanged.

[Michael von Keitz]

After extensive deliberations, the 2012 Olympic Selection Committee has arrived at the following picks:

1. Noritsyn
2. Hansen
3. Porper

My thanks go to the committee for their efforts and to Vlad Drkulec, our Masters' Rep, for his role in the process. Yan Teplitsky has asked that his strong opposition to Edward's inclusion also be noted.

[Ken Craft]

Without a rationale, that "strong objection" just seems to hang in the air.

Hi Michael:

With recent changes, I 've gotten a bit confused about the ordering of team invitations.

Here's what I thought was happening:

1. First invitation to Can. Champion;
2. Next 3 invitations by rating selection list
3. 5th Board invitation - top on Selection Committee list
4. 2 replacements - 2nd and 3rd on the Selection Committee list.
5. if having to go deeper, then according to rating on the Team Selection Rating list.

Do I have this right? ( am I even close? lol )
