I am trying to get the lists of graded players for these 7 years, 2002 to 2008, to study and propose, say all graded players must join 新加坡全国象棋个人赛 at least once in every 5 years (?), otherwise will be downgraded for one grade unless with good reasons (?) etc, may need to consider players above, say 70 years old (?) will not be covered by this proposal.

Views from all, please.

heard that SIXGA is in the process to review our system, if 2 years is too short, could we use 3 years, 4 years or even 5 years ?

if we are not ready for the downgrade after "Position 32", at least we should have a "qualification" system, say to join Singapore Open at least once for every X years.

With the "Number of Years" condition, it is also easier for SIXGA to maintain the list of players in future.

自1999年起，全港個人賽分甲、乙組進行，每屆甲組卅三名及以下將喪失甲組資格，乙組前八名則獲得甲組資格。

自2002年起，制度更改如下，凡香港甲組棋手，如連續兩屆缺席甲組賽事，將喪失甲組資格。即上屆缺席者，今屆若再度缺席將喪失其甲組資格，香港象棋特級大師及香港象棋大師不受此限。

自2003年起，制度更改如下，全港個人賽甲組名次最後百分之二十的棋手將喪失甲組資格，降至乙組，乙組前八名則獲得甲組資格。

香港甲組棋手及並未參加過全港中國象棋個人賽（甲組）的香港象棋特級大師、香港象棋大師將可參加來屆全港中國象棋個人賽（甲組）。

I am trying to get the lists of graded players for 2002 and 2004 新加坡全国象棋个人赛 so that we can have the records of 7 years for the study, otherwise, we could just use the records of 2005 to 2009 (next year) if SIXGA could decide on the maximum number of years is 5.



To have a better system for Singapore Xiangqi Future, all xiangqi lovers should try to suggest whatever we could. Enough sharing of views from me in this matter. : )

with 2004 data, we could start the study now if the maximum number of years is 6 or less. This could also provide information to help in the review of Bishan Grading System.

Furthermore, if we publish the 10-year data in 2012 when Bishan Xiangqi Club celebrating 10th Anniversary, we will need the data from 2003 to 2012.

1967 -- Introduced Divisions A & B for Singapore Open.

1987 -- Introduced 象棋大师, 甲级棋士 and 乙级棋士 for the players.

1991 -- Introduced 等级分.



When is the next change ?

in "既然会长先生抛砖引玉,我也说说自己的看法(长)"

........

全国团体赛没了,狮城杯没了,曾士生杯没了,罗名士杯没了,宗乡会馆杯也看不到了.四,五年前我一年能下50盘全国范围的比赛,去年才下了不到10盘,真是痛心. ......

With only 9 rounds in Singapore Open, once a year, 等级分 is not a good method to compare the standards of the various graded players.

What is the next best ??? To introduce more grades for the players ???

at least 3 competitions over a 5-year period.

after I saw 吉隆坡象棋公会会讯 dated 15 Sep 2005 (joined 新加坡象棋联队 visited 吉隆坡象棋公会 in 2005 年6月, related articles from Pages 11 to 13)), I planned the 碧山民众俱乐部象棋会五周年会庆特辑 with the same number of pages, i.e. 24 Pages including covers. We managed to publish it with 60 pages excluding covers, but using cheaper method with photostating and binding.

A check of SIXGA 10-year reports in the past 3 publications shown that :

50th Anniversary -- 42 pages including photos

60th Anniversary -- 37 pages excluding 9 pages of photos

70th Anniversary -- 7 pages including photos

Due to missing data and information, at this point, to set the target of 24 Pages including covers for 1995 -- 2009 新加坡十五年象棋活动之一二 ...... should be considered as reasonable.

Plan for the worst and hope for the best. :)

and returned home before 6:30 pm and noticed that more than 160 hits for the target setting post.

If the users who give morale support could send 短消息 to me and join me to work on this task in personal capacity, then we should have a better quality output at the end of 2009. :)

due to changing of requirement from 1 room to 2 rooms since 黄教授 and 段雅丽(国家一级棋士，国家二级裁判员) are coming at the same time, tentatively on 11 Sep 2008, SIXGA is still having problem in getting two rooms from a same place, one alternative is to stay at 棋儒's house (at the east) but distance from SIXGA could be one of the concerns ......

If there are 1,2,3 or 4 pages per Chapter, then we will have 15,30, 45 or 60 pages respectively for this article.
