This is the 4th WCup edition where Poland is involved as a tournament organizer. Previous three World Cups (3rd, 6th and 7th) covered 6.222 (sic!) entries and the main effort (as TO and TD) was laid down by our friend Witold Bielecki. The tournament will be played on the ICCF Webserver and will be organized in three stages. The number of promotions will depend on total entries received, but groups at each stage will be comprised of 13 players (12 games) played by webserver with a rate of play of 10 moves in 50 days. The event will be rated with title norms, which are usually possible at the semifinal and final stages. Entries Players may enter in the usual way through their National Federations or, where eligible, via the ICCF Direct Entry system. Entries via National Federations should contain players name, Email address, ICCF ID and current rating and should be forwarded by Email to the Tournament Organizer, Mariusz Wojnar, email: HYPERLINK "mailto:mariusz.wojnar@gmail.com" mariusz.wojnar@gmail.com to reach him before 1st September 2011. It would be appreciated if Federations send entries as received and not delay them until closing date. Allocation of players to the preliminary and semifinal groups will be made as random as possible; however, geographical distribution as well as an achievement of reasonable equality of the average rating, will be taken into account.
