Grandparents rule

[Alan Tate]

Alan Tate amended his residency only rule. Otherwise our top two players and others would now not be eligible

Indeed, I hope it is clear now what I meant.

Perhaps the halfway house of grandparent gets you on the FIDE list as SCO but you must choose to reside here before you can play is the way to go.

I also like the sound of this. It makes a lot of sense.
