    Decisions concerning the title of World Championship

    • WCCI is organized by the PCCC in 8 sections (the
      same as in FIDE Albums).
    • There are three judges in each group, who cannot
      participate as competitors.
    • Only published problems from a 3-years period can
      participate. Every author can send at most 6 compositions in each group
      and 4 best of them count for the final score. Joint problems are not allowed.
      A world champion becomes a composer with the highest sum of his best four
      compositions.
    • Details will be discussed in Pula 2000.
