Re: FIDE Decisions
chessbase didn't comment on the now withdrawn (temporarily?) licensing proposal. But neither did FIDE, despite its potential to destroy the growth of internationally rated chess at the "club" player level.Kevin Thurlow wrote:Some of the 51 decisions look interesting.
Re: FIDE Decisions
With reference to Kevin's originating post:
30... is cryptic to me - what is 'social action'? If it was legal action I'd have a clue.
32... dusting off my old suit. Will it be sartorially acceptable or offensive now?
38... there seems to be more than a little redundancy in this pronouncement. However, the dates are very inclusive.
Perhaps I should have read the report first. I'll do so in a mo.
Finally, I find myself in agreement with Roger's post - having returned to my roots as a bronze club player I am finding all potential for growing my FIDE rating has been destroyed.

It is good to see that FIDE are striving to provide a diverse range of venues! "Gens una sumus" has a ring of reality to it.

It looks to me this has less to do with "providing diversity" than with "having no other bidder", Khanty-Mansiysk seems the new Elista...

Re: FIDE Decisions
One would hope that this is contrary to FIDE's rules for awarding events. At the very least it's going to put off anyone else who might have been considering bidding (even if the chances of there being anyone else is low).John Upham wrote:It could be thatPaolo Casaschi wrote: It looks to me this has less to do with "providing diversity" than with "having no other bidder", Khanty-Mansiysk seems the new Elista...is relevant.and not open a bidding procedure
