FIDE encourages more federations to further popularize and organize more Rapid and Blitz tournaments. The QC, after consultation with the Treasurer, has agreed to defer payments for rating reports and rating fees for Rapid and Blitz tournaments until at least 1 January 2014. The QC will present its draft regulations for title awards for Rapid and Blitz at the 2013 Congress. We welcome ideas which must be submitted to ignatius.leong@fide.com before 31 January 2013.
