Thanks for the info Andy. Can you tell us some of their reasons for their dislike of the FIDE rating idea?
I can understand the argument for not FIDE rating events with 2 games per day (Edinburgh Congress, which is FIDE-rated; SNCL, which isn't) but the Richardson is one game per day with an excellent time control (better than most external FIDE-rated events!)
