However - these links currently contain NO INFORMATION - they as simply bookmarks at this time - the organisers have not yet published further information

I will also post on the Website News page and will notify as soon as the data becomes available.

An update from the organisers --

As last year, that was only ever announced on the day after the previous pool ended, because we have to wait until the previous division is completed before assigning the new pools, to ensure that we don't have any problems with timezone, and that the pools are of broadly equal strength.

[Alastair White]

Watching Scotland slaughtering everyone in an Olympiad. I must be dreaming.

Even when they blunder, they end up getting a result.

Scotland Qualify for Division 2 of the Online Olympiad with 3 games to spare ? 
Outstanding performance

Some stats -
Played 36, won 27, draw 6, loss 2,
(+1 loss by default - due to slight pairing mix-up)

[Alastair White]

Scotland rested their top players against Nigeria and ‘only’ won 4-2.

Against UAE, Jakob agreed a 4 move draw against 1500 player. Not sure what happened there.

With Wales beating Angola, Scotland set to top their qualifying group. Angola up next.
