Maybe someone can confirm this information for me: As of the official USCF rules, a 30+30 or 45+45 game, OTB, would count as a regular rating because the primary time control + the increment = more than 60. Is this correct?
Thanks
Disclaimer: I'm not a TD, and I'm looking at these specific rules for the first time.
I'm assuming that 30+30 means G/30 d/30 (a single time control of Game in 30 minutes with a delay of 30 seconds per move) and 45+45 means G/45 d/45 (a single time control of Game in 45 minutes with a delay of 45 seconds per move).
This link gives the USCF Ratable Time Controls:
http://www.uschess.org/docs/gov/reports/timecontrols.pdf
As best as I can interpret the guidance, the G/30 d/30 would fall within the Dual (both regular and quick) rating system, and the G/45 d/45 would fall within the Regular only rating system.
(I hope I'm right.)
