Good luck to all too, and many thanks to Martin for putting this together
Good luck to all teams!!
Thanks, always good to hear that some appreciate the work I have done for CSC 2013. 
As for the groups I have updated with 2 new teams that registered today, after the deadline, but before I had made the pairings. I wish everyone good luck and may the best team win.
Thanks for putting this together Martin, it is very much appreciated.
Update: I've updated the list with new ratings. The biggest change is that Dan Heisman Learning Center went from unrated to 1521 and is currently the third highest rated team in CSC 2013. The ratings can be found at the Vote Chess Elo Rankings group. To get a rating (long time control) a team must have completed at least 5 vote chess games with these requirements:
- The time control is at least 1 day/move
- Not a 960 game
- Not ended on time in 5 moves or less
- Not "UNRATED" in the gamename
Update: Team Philippines United has withdrawn and the teams The Killer Derivatives and The Friendly Knights is clear to advance to round 2.
Update: I have updated with new ratings. Several teams went from unrated to rated and notable is that Los Mellojoski went from unrated to 1753 making them the highest rated in the tournament and the 10th highest rated team on chess.com.
Update: More than half of the games have finished (13/24) and there has been a lot of interesting games with 0 draws so far. A short summary of the standings:
Group 1: In group one the 2 highest rated teams in this tournaments are participating (Los Mollejoski and Chess BayTVC) together with ASIA and BULGARIA. Only one game has finished and that was the top board with Los Mollejoski winning against Chess BayTVC.
Group 2: In group two the teams Chess Society of IRAN,HORSEMEN & WOMEN,Team International and Team USA are participating. HORSEMEN & WOMEN has started very strong and already won all their 3 games and ready to advance. Only left for the other teams to fight for the 2nd spot to advance in their group. Team USA has won against Team International, but with 2 games left (Game 8: Chess Society of IRAN VS Team International and Game 9: Chess Society of IRAN VS Team USA) it is not clear which the 2nd advancing team will be.
Group 3: In group three the teams The Killer Derivatives, Team Philippines United and The Friendly Knights was participating until Team Philippines United withdrew making it clear that the Killer Derivatives and The Friendly Knights advance. Both games between The Killer Derivatives and The Friendly knight are in progress and who doesn't want to advance in style by getting the 1st place?
Group 4: In group four the teams Bengal United, Dan Heisman Learning Center and The Rook_ies Vote Chess Team are participating. Bengal United has managed to win both their games against The Rook_ies Vote Chess Team and Dan Heisman Learning Center has managed to win one game against The Rook_ies Vote Chess Team. Dan Heisman Learning Center has also won one game against Bengal United. This make it clear that Bengal United and Dan Heisman Learning Center will advance while The Rook_ies vote chess team is eliminated.
To sum things up it is clear which teams will advance in group 3 and 4, one team is ready to advance in group 2 and noone is yet ready to advance in group 1.
Update: Only 5 games left!
In group one Los Mellejoski is clear to advance to the next round after winning against both Chess Bay TVC and BULGARIA. It is also clear ASIA will be eliminated since they lost against both Chess Bay TVC and Bulgaria. It is however not clear who the second team to advance will be and that will be decided in the game with Chess Bay TVC against Bulgaria (both advance if it is a draw).
In group two it was already clear that Horsemen & Women would advance, but now the second team to advance has also been settled and that team is Team USA after winning against both Team International and Chess Society of IRAN.
In group three and four it was already clear since earlier that the teams The Friendly Knights, The Killer Derivatives, Dan Heisman Learning Center and Bengal United would advance.
Update: I have updated with new ratings. The Friendly Knights went from unrated to 1377 which makes all teams except Team International rated. Several teams have gained a lot of rating points this period and the teams that gained over 100 points is Los Mollejoski, Bengal United and Team USA. That also makes Los Mollejoski the highest rated vote chess team on chess.com. Well done Los Mollejoski!
Update: The last decisive game has finished in round 1. The game between Chess Bay TVC and Bulgaria ended in a draw, so both of them will advance. I have also changed the scorings to win=1, draw= ½, loss=0, but that doesn't make any real difference really. 2 games left in round 1, but the pairings for round 2 will come soon.
Update: Bengal United has decided to withdraw and The Rook_ies Vote Chess Team will participate in the second round instead.
Update: All games have finished in round 1
Update: I have updated the ratings for all teams that were not eliminated in round 1 or withdrawn. The biggest change is that Los Mollejoski is no longer the highest rated team on chess.com, but still the highest rated team in this tournament. Also The Friendly Knights have lost 3 games in round 2, so it is clear that they will get eliminated.
Update: The Killer derivatives have won both games against Chess Bay TVC, so it is clear that The Killer derivatives will advance and Chess Bay TVC will be eliminated.
