Playing Rules: Leave/Withdrawal

31. Game scores, positions, and analyses for adjudication shall be sent to the tournament secretary within two weeks of the date set for close of play.
    

32. The games sent in must contain the following:
    a) the score of the game
    b) the final position at break-off (white and black)
    c) claims for the evaluation of the game (win, draw or loss).
    These proposals must be clear and cannot be withdrawn.
    d) thorough analysis in support of the claim made under c above.
    If the material required in “c” and “d” is not included with the game score and position sent in, or if it is not sent within the required two weeks, then any right of appeal against the adjudication is lost.
    

33. If the break-off position or game score is sent in by neither player at the break-off of the game, then in the case of title tournaments, the qualification committee shall have the power to decide that the game in question shall be called a draw (in the case of non-title tournaments zero points shall be given to both players according to para. 42).
    

34. The adjudicator shall be neutral.
    

35. The adjudication shall be carried out within a month after delivery of the material according to para. 32. Where however, the opposing players or team captains ask for the same result in their claims according to para. 32c, then no further adjudication is needed. The result is as claimed.
    

36. The adjudicator examines the analyses of the players. He arrives at his decision according to the analysis he deems correct. Where no analyses (according to para. 32d) have been received, the adjudicator decides according to his own judgement. In this case, he can adjudicate the position without deep analysis, referring to general principles (eg extra material, theoretically drawn or won positions). The adjudicator can treat in the same way cases in which the submitted analyses are erroneous or insufficient.
    

37. The tournament secretary shall notify the players or team captains of the result 10 days after the adjudication, giving reasons which need not include any analysis.
    

38. Where a player wishes to exercise his right to appeal against an adjudication result, he shall submit his appeal to the tournament secretary within 8 days of the receipt of the adjudication result. Such an appeal must be supported by analysis.
    

39. The appeal will be considered by another adjudicator within 15 days.
    

40. There is no appeal against the judgement of the second adjudicator.
