Motion 1
New Article:
441. CFC/FIDE/USCF/FQE Rating Adjustments.
A player who has attained a FIDE, USCF or FQE rating that is 200 or more points higher than his/her CFC rating may request that their CFC rating be adjusted to match their other rating provided that player has played at least 10 games in the other system in the 12 months prior to the request

Motion 2
Addendum to Article 436:
Players with FQE ratings will be treated in the same manner

8. POLICY DISCUSSION
8A Youth Committee/Parents' Council
8B National Tournaments Committee
8C Handbook Committee
8D Olympiad Qualification - Should we increase the minimum number of games to qualify? Some have suggested that 40 games over the past two years with the proviso that they be CFC, FIDE or USCF rated play would not be an unreasonable requirement. The reason that we might consider USCF play is that many of our top young players are going to post-secondary schools in the U.S. making it difficult to get in the requisite number of CFC games.
