North Norfolk Crabs v Broadland Grebes

Simon Walkerlate does not have a standard rating so is showing as 0000. Rule 3b says "Where a player does not have a current published rating the Competitions Controller is to allocate an appropriate estimated rating using information from any relevant source." On the basis of his placement on Board 2 I have assigned him an estimated local "L" standard rating of 1200. I will remove this rating once he has an ECF standard rating. If that rating is a provisional "P" rating his Captain may want to consider asking for a further "L" rating to be applied until such time as he becomes "K" rated.

I have added Ruthven Ridley to the Broadland Player List and updated the match result to show him in place of New Player. He does not have a standard rating so is showing as 0000. Rule 3b says "Where a player does not have a current published rating the Competitions Controller is to allocate an appropriate estimated rating using information from any relevant source." If you click on Ruthven's name and scroll down you will see that he has ECF Blitz OTB Latest rating of 1201P and an ECF Rapid OTB Latest rating of 944K. On this basis I have assigned him an estimated local "L" rating of 1000. I will remove this rating once he has an ECF rating. If the ECF rating is a provisional "P" rating his Captain may want to consider asking for a further "L" rating to be applied until such time as his rating becomes "K" rated.

It seems that Simon Walkerlate's record on the ECF database has vanished. This is very peculiar. He was there earlier today, otherwise I would not have been able to add him as an existing player (as opposed to a new player unknown to ECF) to the Broadland player list. I will enquire of the LMS Administrator how this might have happened.
