Online grading list is missing

Post by Mike Gunn » Tue Jul 21, 2009 10:19 am

...or at least the link from the ECF site is missing (which is how I used to get there). I know that a new list is imminent, but some of us are still entering tournaments/ organising them and the online resource is useful to look up people's grades.

I couldn't see a way of reporting this on the ECF site, btw.

Mike,

The URL is http://grading.bcfservices.org.uk/ and the link is currently listed on the ECF site.

ECF Site, Resources, ECF Grading, Online Grading Database.

I spoke with Andrew Walker and explained that Coaching is not restricted to juniors and should not be hidden under junior chess. He agreed with me and elevated its status.

This was a battle I'd had with Sophie that I gave up on previously.

Now, I'm hoping that the shop will be working so that I can allow the purchase of CoM credits via that means. I only made it clear that this needed to be in place back in September 2008! (as one of my pre-conditions for the CoM contract). I add new items to the AMCA shop on a regular basis.

Oh, yes, I hadn't noticed that the menu changes (even less obvious on a blackberry). I know the old site had its critics but having that distinctive symbol to click on was v useful, imho.
