II. Regulations
Stage 1 group stage
Two players who score the most points advance from the group.
In case of an equal number of points, places are distributed according to additional indicators (in order of priority):
1. Berger coefficient.
2. Head-to-head result.
3. Points scored in the game "weigh" more than those in technical defeats.
4. If it is impossible to determine which players will advance to the playoffs based on previous indicators, a scheme of transition games will be offered to the players. At present, it is impossible to foresee all possible combinations of results. Therefore, the final scheme will be developed based on the situation that develops in the groups at the end of the stage.
Victory - 3 points; defeat - 0; draw - 1 point (counted at the 211+ stage at the discretion of the organizers)
The group stage ends on May 31, 2016. (no saves or replays will be accepted, results will be posted based on submitted tournament reports)
