Renaissance Knights will continue to use USCF ratings for many of its tournaments. Also, many these tournaments will be dual rated using the Chess Express Ratings (CXR) system.
We are introducing CXR only Scholastic tournaments. The benefit of using the CXR system is that CXR will rate tournaments with both CXR members and non-members (Only the CXR members will be rated), the low cost of membership, and CXR ratings are highly responsive to your current playing ability through ratings and percentages that isolate: Your performance with the WHITE pieces; Your performance with the BLACK pieces; Your performance against much STRONGER OPPONENTS
Renaissance Knights will provide free CXR membership to all competitors good through July 2008. CXR membership normally cost $5 for children and $12 for adults.
