I guess the question is 'can I play' if it is a closed Scottish event? Or am I automatically excluded? For comparison, I've been told I can play in the British (and therefore compete for any titles within it) so long as I remain a British citizen.
No worries about personal issues - just curious! And there must be other Scots out there in the same kind of situation as me - it's hard to remain 'SCO' when that rules you out of many of the events in your area!
Also, for comparison: here in NZ, anyone with NZ citizenship is eligible to win any NZ title (though if registered say ENG naturally does not have the right to take up certain of the 'prizes' which include a place in the Olympiad team or first refusal of a place in the Zonal).
