In Response To: ?Online tournament rule (Leonardo Jerkovic)

There is a difference between tournament play and what I'll call pick-up games. In a tournament, you don't have a choice about who you play. Some players prefer to only play others who are close to their own rating. It does not seem fair to force these players to put ratings points on the line in a match they would not play in the pick-up setting.
