October 31, 2005Fernschach-WertungszahlAnkündigung des BdF Da die Verleihung einer offiziellen FWZ an die Mitgliedschaft im BdF gebunden ist, werden die dort dargestellten Zahlen vorläufig erteilt. Sie bleiben auf die Dauer von zwei Jahren erhalten, soweit keine neue Turnierauswertung hinzutritt. Im Falle einer neuen Mitgliedschaft im BdF wird die erreichte FWZ jeweils übernommen und offiziell zur Grundlage weiterer Auswertungen erhoben. Die ausgewiesenen FWZ bleiben auch ohne das Eingehen der BdF-Mitgliedschaft erhalten, wenn sie durch weitere Teilnahmen an Veranstaltungen mit FWZ-Wertung bestätigt werden. Als solche kommen "Schnupperturniere" im BdF - vgl. die Informationen auf der BdF-Homepage unter "Neu hier?" - weitere Fernschach-Server-Open und gfs. weitere Veranstaltungen in Betracht. In diesen Fällen verlängert sich jeweils die Frist von zwei Jahren bis zum Verfall der neu erlangten FWZ.

October 27, 2005Swiss tournamentsThe next rounds of our two Swiss tournaments will start in about 2 weeks. I have sent out emails to players that are suspected to be potential "drop-outs". Please answer these emails quickly (if you get one). Players that do not get such an "invitation" are assumed to continue the tournament. My sincere apologies to all players of this tournament (and to Paul, the tournament director) for this HUGE delay. The translation project needed all my attention. SORRY! From now on, other task have priority again. I plan some nice improvements, which will be available very soon. Thomas - webmaster of PlayChess

Thank you very much! German: Lob, Kritik und Anregungen zur deutschen Übersetzung können Sie gerne im "Übersetzer-Forum" anbringen. Für die Störungen während der Aktualisierung der Website bitte ich um Nachsicht!
