Thread is now difficult to follow and too much looking back the way.
Do we have someone good at flowcharts? I am sure I have seen them used in the past in SC/forum? I would really like to see easy to read decision flow charts covering the proposals going forward:
The flow chart should be easy to read, clear and factual (if its seen as useful it might help if the proposer would be able to approve it)
Starting point: Eligibility?
Eligible under SC extended rules
Not eligible
...and so on
A few extra points:

- National
- International
The flow chart should be easy to read, clear and factual (if its seen as useful it might help if the proposer would be able to approve it)
Starting point: Eligibility?
- No SC Badge?
- Get a badge process and loop back to eligibility?
- Don't get a badge outcome (not eligible under fide rules) : no ifs or buts
- Yes SCO Badged
- Accept minimum fide criteria outcome (eligible)
- Use SC extra requirements.
Eligible under SC extended rules
Not eligible
...and so on
A few extra points:
- It Seems that the Scottish tournament Director SHOULD follow SC procedures but MUST follow fide minimum criteria for national titles.
- Minimum periods would be helpful on some optionals: for example a vote on allowing grandparent can only happen every 2 or 5 years or if a player was to be given an exception.
- Eligible international players are also still subject to selection criteria. For example players minimum no of games/ could be expected to contribute by way of training etc. (Point being the section process can be used to make it easier or harder for certain players to be selected regardless of eligibility)
