The Chess Olympics - Frequently Asked Questions!

Hello, and thank you for viewing The Chess Olympic's Frequently Asked Questions, or FAQ. Below, you will find answers to numerous questions that are often sent to administrators. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact an administrator or post your question below! Thank you and enjoy!

Frequently Asked Questions:

1. My team has just surpassed the member limit for registration. Can I still register my group?

Answer: As stated in the requirements forum, exceptions may be made; so, this depends. If your group has just barely tipped the limit, you may register. However, if you are significantly above or below the limit, you may not register. 

2. Is there a specific "average rating" requirement for registration?

Answer: No, there isn't, although there may be in the future. 

3. When will my team's matches start?

Answer: You will be given this information in your schedule. Chess Olympic matches usually initiate periodically; for example, when one match ends another may begin.

4. May I withdraw from the Olympics once it begins?

Answer: Yes, it is possible. Please note, however, that you will lose multiple team matches if you choose to do so. 

5. Does my team have a strong chance of winning?

Answer: It cannot be guaranteed that your team will win. Each group has an even chance at the trophy. However, we do recommend that you have as much experience as possible.

 

Thank you for reading and may the best team win!
