Become an affiliate or we will charge you for grading your games? Come across as blackmail.
SJC has ran CS events for many years without taking a charge. Perhaps CS would need to become an affiliate of SJC at a cost of, say £40, for it to consider doing so in future?
It sounds as if you, as HJD are in favour of this, David?
My biggest concerns about this still remain in school chess where there are kids coming along to play who pay nothing, and in many cases either can't afford to pay anything or wouldn't come along if there was a charge. Are we now saying that they can't have graded games?
