Solvers’ ratings July 1st 2020
Solvers’ ratings as of July 1st 2020 produced by the Solving Tournament Manager are published! Due to the Corona pandemic no rated solving tournament occurred in the 2nd quarter 2020. Therefore the rating of all solvers remains unchanged.
World Solving Cup 2019/2020 – current cycle extended until year-end
Due to the Corona pandemic all WSC tournaments since March 2020 had to be cancelled or postponed. To enable those countries to have a WSC tournament in the current cycle the WFCC Solving Committee has decided the following one-time rule change which is also supported by the members of the WFCC presidium:
- The cycle 2019/2020 will be extended to the end of the year 2020
- The cycle 2020/2021 remains from October 2020 to the date of the WCCC 2021
- Roland Ott will act as director of the cycle 2020/2021 with Axel Steinbrink and Marek Kolčák as assistant directors
