Olympiad selection lists

I think the CFC jumped the gun naming the selection lists on its Forum web site. Its own rules (according to CFC Handbook, Section 12, on the CFC's web site - http://www.chess.ca/section_12.shtml) state that the period for eligible minimum number of games (10) goes for 180 days before the start of the Olympiad. That means games played until Monday, March 22 should count.

So, by posting the "FINAL" list too soon, some players are denied a chance to qualify. Once again, the CFC is ... breaking its own rules? misinterpreting its own rules? interpreting its rules as is convenient?

better?

code and font Lucida Console + some additional spaces

[Eric Hansen]

When will the wildcard be chosen?

[Bob Armstrong]

Ilia:

You said : " These Ratings will be used to select the three highest rated players for the National Olympic team. "

I thought a team was 4 players + 1 Reserve.

Does this mean that three are by rating, and the Selection Committee picks any 2 others they wish?

Bob

[Egidijus Zeromskis]

I thought

you may always check with the handbook

(i) The Canadian Champion, as of 180 days before the start of the Olympiad.
(ii) The three highest rated players on the Selection Rating list.
(iii) One player decided upon by the Selection Committee.

[QUOTE=Egidijus Zeromskis]you may always check with the handbook

lol - that is funnier than you may think... then again, perhaps you know all too well why that is funny.
