Talk:2023 FIDE Circuit

Caruana qualifying via Circuit
If Caruana finishes 4th in World Cup, and Carlsen doesn't officially withdraw by the end of the year, Caruana won't yet have qualified to Candidates and as such will (if he still leads the Circuit) qualify via FIDE Circuit. Carlsen's replacement will then by via rating, not the 2nd finisher in the Circuit A3811 (talk) 16:40, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

Tata Steel India
Tata Steel India has 2 separate events - 1 Rapid and 1 Blitz that count separately for FIDE circuit points.

Refer to The events for Praggnanandhaa on the official FIDE page - https://wcc.fide.com/fide_circuit.phtml

It already lists score via Rapid tournament which uses a factor of 0.6 (Rapid tournament factor) rather than 0.5 (Mixed R&B event).

This is in contrast to the undos made according to the same. A234234 (talk) 11:36, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

Final Ranking
Hi, I suggest ranking all players with 5 eligible events. To qoute the regulations: "3.1 Each player has to play in a minimum of five eligible tournaments, including at least four eligible tournaments with a standard time control." There is no mention of a need to score points in each event. I am aware that the FIDE website shows otherwise, but at the end of the day the regulations decide.
