What happens if I reach a rating above 1200 in daily chess? I assume I will be kicked, right?

Yes, If you’re above 1200 by the start, you’ll be removed from the tournament.

However if you are below and go above 1200 during the tournament, you stay unless it’s obvious your skill level is way beyond 1200 (ie if someone creates a new account before it begins, has a rating of 400 and smokes all the competition haha).

Oh ok, thanks for the answer. Who knows what my daily rating will be in a few months, but hopefully I will still be able to join ahaha
