Halloween Checkmate Challenge

Yes, this tournament is FOA-Rated and will affect your FOA Rating.

Is it rated?

A win has a base score of 1 point, a draw 0.5 point, and a loss is worth no points. This is a Swiss tournament, so you will be paired with the opponent based on your previous round's results. If you don't have an opponent for one round (if the number of participants is odd), you will be awarded a point.

How are scores calculated?

The player(s) with the most points at the end of the tournament will be announced winner. When two or more players have the same amount of points, the Buchholz Tie Break is used.

How is the winner decided?

It is the Swiss pairing system. At the beginning of the tournament, players are paired based on their ratings.
