In a perfect world:
- NIgel: you do know the rules say game 6 should not be rated?
Loek: really, that was not our intention - I'm terribly sorry for the mistake, would you mind awfully playing a rated game old man?
Nigel: (possibly seething) - of course not dear chap, I really appreciate the invite to such a nice event
Loek: thank you very much, we will amend the rules for next year and hope you will play again
From the point of view of a casual spectator, I'd suggest forgetting all about this nonsense and playing through the games of van Foreest - Sokolov which was a fantastic match:
