A while back in another thread about tournament numbers and the decline of chess in Scotland, we tangented off in to discussion about why the titled players weren't entering our w/e congresses. Many of us want to see more titled players on the tournament circuit, but as is the norm there was good debate but nothing seems to have come out of that discussion. I.e. how to resolve that situation, or an action plan. It seems most relevant to bring it up again and is perhaps even the 1st step in improving our high level competition available?
