NOTES

Rating List: The FIDE Rating List of 1 July 2006 will be used to determine rating (grading) prizes for the Masters. The ECF Grading List of August 2006 and other appropriate national grading lists will be used to determine eligibility and grading prizes for the Tony Bridson Memorial and Dennis Hemsley Tournaments. Ungraded players will be assessed using all available information. Ungraded players may only win half the value of a main prize in the Dennis Hemsley Tournament.
Registration All players in the Masters must register in advance by 8.00pm on 22 September 2006. If unable to do so in person, you must make personal telephone contact with The Ocean Castle Hotel, tel. +44(0)1624 836399. In the first round of the Tony Bridson Memorial and Dennis Hemsley Tournaments, players whose opponents have not arrived must elect to re-paired after one hour.
Byes Other than those receiving conditions, players may claim a ½ point bye in any round, except the last, provided this is requested on entry.
Bulletin All players in the Masters will be expected to help ensure their games are entered on ChessBase shortly after after finishing each game. Please make sure all score sheets are legible.
Age Eligibility This refers to the age on 1 January 2006 both for both seniors and juniors.
Prizes: Where players finish equal, cash prizes will be shared, however, if a player wins more than one cash prize, they will receive the larger of the prizes. The smaller prize will be redistributed to other players (in the case of level scores) or re-awarded to the next eligible players, at th discretion of the organisers.
Refusal The organisers reserve the right to refuse any entry without giving a reason. Except in such cases a deduction of 50% will normally be made from any refund of entry fee and then only if the organisers are notified before 22 September.
Appeals A player may appeal against the decision of an arbiter. An Appeal Committee will be formed, chaired by an International Arbiter not involved in the original dispute, with two other members acceptable to all parties.

THE ISLE OF MAN

• The Ocean Castle Hotel is situated in Port Erin, a picturesque resort. The Cherry Orchard Hotel is in the village centre.
• The room rate at the Ocean Castle is £33.50 per person per night, bed and breakfast, for either single or twin occupancy.
• The evening meal at the Ocean Castle costs £14.
• It is approximately 30 minutes by road from Douglas, the capital.
• The Isle of Man is a Crown dependency. Although situated in the British Isles off the west coast of England, it is not in the United Kingdom. It has the oldest democratic parliament in the world.
• There are many sites of special interest on the island. At one point, on a clear day, it is possible to see England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
• The weather at that time of year is usually temperate.
• To reach the Isle of Man, most people will probably fly. For players coming from outside the British Isles, the most convenient route is probably via Gatwick, Luton or Manchester. This is likely to be about £130-£160 return at that time of year.
• It is also possible to travel by ferry from Heysham or Liverpool. This enables players to bring their own cars. The cost is £38-£46 or £169-£189 for two in a car.
• Return transfers can be arranged from the airport or ferry terminal at a cost of £20.
• There is a wide variety of accommodation on the island, including pub, farmhouse, guesthouse, hotel or self-catering. Typical guest house is £25 per night without private facilities, or £30 with. Hotels with private facilities are approximately £32 per night. Self-catering accommodation at the excellent Cherry Orchard apartments is: one bedroom £80 per night and two-bedroom £85 per night.
• Travel insurance can be provided at a cost of £21 and transfers at £20.
• Those who require visas can obtain them from the British Embassy. Separate permission to travel to the Isle of Man is usually just a formality, but you should apply in good time. We recommend you commence proceedings by 23 August 2006.
