Current results and standings updated for Division 1:
http://www.chess.com/groups/forumview/el2013---division-1-scoreboard-and-standings

Four teams are fighting in the top:
Team Russia, Team Armenia, Team Germany, and Team England.

All of them still have opportunities to win!

Only one match remains to startup for this season:
R11 between Team Turkey and Team England

A lot of matches affected by cheating, which can impacts on the final results and standings.

A little context: I'm not the admin who made the challenge.

 

Action: I'll make sure this is brought to the attention of those concerned, post haste.

I don't know. I do mostly news items and recruitment.

 

I have posted a link to this discussion in Team England HQ. I'm sure that when a super admin comes online, he'll make contact.

 

Anyway, in the mean time, please explain the problem.

Hello ali,

I'm the admin for Team England who sent the challenge. Doggy_style has copied the rule above and there is only a mention of a minimum number of players, not a maximum :-

Starting Position: Standard

Times per move: 3 days

     Minimum Games: 1

     Minimum players per team:

    Division 1: 30 players
    Division 2: 20 players
    Division 3: 10 players
    Division 4: 10 player

     Concurrent games per opponent: 2

Also as at present there are only 57 Turkish players who have signed up for the match, the point does not seem to make life difficult for Team Turkey.

Since Team Turkey is smaller than Team England, the settings as they are will be slightly advantageous to Team Turkey, and we (at Team England) do not mind that.

I think it would be bothersome to players on both sides to have to do it again, and best to just proceed - especially as it has been pointed out that the EL rules specify only the minimum (which has been set), but not that the rosters need be limitless (which they don't, as per EL rules).

if Johan Palmer say ok for this game settings, we dont have any problem, because lots of our members enter the game.. and we can do this match with this limit.. ok for England too ?

Avatar of AnastasiaStyles

Definitely ok by Team England.

The reason for note state any maximum is that there should not be any maximum figure set. It has been so since 2009 during 5 seasons. This seems to be the very first time during the years that somebody applies a maximum number of players...
