Most important News from ICCF Zone 2 (CADAP) until September 2004 

On January 2004, a new Zonal Director started his period. 

Guillermo Toro Solís de Ovando replaced Carlos Cranbourne, who had been Zonal Director for 6 years. 

It is our wish to hearty thank Carlos for his excellent job during the whole period he was Zonal Director and the big help he has given to Zone 2 Management during this year. 

The start of the new Zonal Director period was quite difficult, mainly due to the unfriendly and hostile attitude of the Argentinean League President and some members of de Executive Board of LADAC. 

Not only the Zonal Director, but many Latin American National Leagues, and even a lot of Argentinean players had to suffer the political discrimination and aggressive behaviour of LADAC´s President. 

Fortunately these problems came to an end in May, when a new LADAC´s Executive Board was elected, with Carlos Cranbourne as its President, and things had a dramatic and positive change. 

Now we can really say that all national leagues are working together for the progress of CADAP, in a true Amici Sumus spirit. 

In this new period, there were only little changes in Zone 2 Organization. Since the former Zone 2 Management did a remarkable job, no big changes were considered necessary, and most of CADAP officers accepted to continue working for CADAP in their former positions. 

The main projects for the remaining months of this year are:

  1. To start the Zonal 16 Final. We expect to have a Category 9 o better tournament, to allow the winner and runner ups to classify directly to a World Championship Final.
  2. To form a strongest team possible to compete in the Interzonal Team Tournament 2004, organized once again for our good friend Med Samraoui.

The main project we expect to have during year 2005 will be the organization of the ICCF Congress. 

LADAC has presented to ICCF Executive Board its proposal to be the organizer of the ICCF Congress 2005 in the southern Argentinean state of Neuquen. I must say that, as Zonal Director, I am delighted with this opportunity to have a Congress in our zone for the second time. 

Very important citizens of Neuquen and LADAC Executive Board are working from now own to make this Congress the best possible one. 

The Zonal Director will cooperate directly with the Congress organization and LICHAP, the Chilean national league, is working on different alternatives to make also an optional tour possible to the southern Chilean territory. 

So we hearty hope this ICCF Congress 2004 will vote in favour of the Argentinean proposal.

5. 1st WebChess Open Tournament - Announcement

 

1st ICCF WEBCHESS OPEN TOURNAMENT

1st October 2004

Dear Friends,

ICCF is delighted to announce its first WebChess Open tournament to be played on the ICCF dedicated Webserver www.iccf-webchess.com.

This tournament is open to all correspondence chess players worldwide, also for those without any previous ICCF experience. Multiple entries are allowed.

The tournament will be played in three stages – preliminaries, semifinal and final.

For this tournament, ICCF Playing Rules for Individual tournament games played normally by Webserver will apply. The interim version of these rules is available on www.iccf-webchess.com (click on "Online Help" → "Interim Playing Rules"). The final version of rules will be approved by the ICCF Congress in Mumbai, November 2004.

The preliminary stage will be started in January-February, 2005 in sections of 7 (seven) players each. Only the section winner will qualify for the semifinal stage. Ties to be broken according to the ICCF Tournament Rules, Article 5.

The sections will be started in batches of approx. 25 sections, with one-week distance. The exact size of batches will depend on the total number of entries / sections.

The responsible ICCF Officer for this tournament is Valer-Eugen Demian (CAN), ICCF Non-Title Tournaments Commissioner (NTTC). He has appointed Guido Bresadola (ITA) as the Central Tournament Leader (CTL). The Tournament Directors will be appointed by the NTTC / CTL to take care of the particular preliminary sections.

This tournament will be sponsored by ICCF by a prize fund, which will amount to 10 percent of the collected entry fees, however, not less than CHF 2 000. Cash prizes only to be paid in the final stage.

The entry fee for entries submitted via National Federations is CHF 12 per each section. The National Federations may set fees in local currencies as needed to cover this amount on entries they receive. The entry fee for Direct Entry is USD 15 per one section.

The deadline for entries is 31st December, 2004. Entries to be sent via National Federations by Email to the Central Tournament Leader Guido Bresadola (ITA), Email: "asigc@galactica.it

Those players who are not yet members of any of our national CC federations, or who are members of national CC federations but have not played in ICCF tournaments previously, may enter this tournament via the Direct Entry facility available on www.correspondencechess.com/de/webform2.html. The participation of these players is, however, limited to 2 (two) preliminary sections. For each direct entry subject to an entry fee, the appropriate ICCF member federation (where any) will receive a credit of CHF 3, and for all direct entries, it will be provided with the player's details, for national contact follow up.

Special provisions:

Any prior ICCF player who according to the Eloquery database has not entered an ICCF tournament (Open Class, Higher Class, Master Class, Jubilee, World Cup, Semifinal, etc.) within the last five years (i.e. 2000 till 2004), will be entitled to enter one preliminary section of this tournament for free.

We hope that this first big ICCF WebChess event not only will attract our loyal players who will be eager to test this new modern way of moves transmission, but also many new players who still have had no previous ICCF experience.

Play Webserver chess with ICCF, join your local National CC Federation and the ICCF community!

AMICI SUMUS!
