eg joe bloggs = 2200 fide , andy smith = 2275 fide , pat brown = 2280 fide: andy, pat and joe can play in any order
due to fides similar
the strong players dont want it rated so I scrapped it
Thats not good enough Andy.
Its not being FIDE rated but you can use FIDE ratings within 80points for board order? What an absolute nonsense. There is a rule in place, lets just stick to it.
The order of players in each team shall be that of current playing strength.
Order based on CS gradings if it is only going to be CS graded - you can decide, Andy, whether we use the PUBLISHED list or the LIVE list (one OR the other) and let us know as soon as possible please.
Out of interest, which strong players dont want it rated and when was that decided?
