I will be getting my FIDE rating in Oklahoma at the 2nd Jerry Hanken FIDE Winter Open
I need to play 5 FIDE players in the 7 round event. Details of my first FIDE rating norm here.
Is the "2066" in the "Rp" column at the FIDE link your rating for your first norm? I take it they'll take the average out of three norms?
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
Thanks
ReplyDeleteYes I think that's true. ("Rp" etc.)
I think one needs 9 games against FIDE rated players. Since I have a 4 game norm, I need a 5 game norm to complete the requirements for a FIDE rating.
The games have to come in blocks of 3 or more.
After July once you get your first rating norm, you can collect the others one at a time (until you get to nine) ie no 3 game block requirement.
APPENDIX 4: Calculation of Ratings of new players
ReplyDelete(1-4 refer to Swisses)
1. Only games in which at least one player is rated count for rating purposes.
2. For rated players, only their games against rated opponents count.
3. In order for an unrated player to gain a rating based solely on the one event, it is essential to
play against 9 opponents all of whom are rated.
4. Where an unrated player meets less than 9 rated opponents, then his rating performance is
averaged with rating performances in other events.
5. Where an unrated player meets less than 3 rated opponents his result is not counted.
6. Where an unrated player scores 0 or ½ in his first performance, his result is ignored.
7. To determine the rating performance of a previously unrated player Ru:
a) Determine the average rating of the opponents Ra.
b) Where a player scores 50% Rating Performance = Ra
c) Where a player scores >50% Rating Performance = Ra + 12.5 for each point over
50%
d) Where a player scores <50% Rating Performance = Ra - number shown below

8. Where an event commences in one rating period, but concludes in another, a player may
be unrated in the first list, but rated in the second. Then he counts as unrated throughout for
his opponents. His own rating change is determined as if he were rated from the beginning of
the tournament.
