Adjudication of unfinished team games: 1. If no result has been agreed by the published closing date of the team match, both players shall submit to the Arbiter ( within 15-days that follow the match closing date ), a record of the moves played, the position reached, and a statement claiming either a win or a draw which may be supported by analysis in .pgn or ChessBase format. 2. Players that do not wish to submit analysis will forfeit their right to appeal the adjudicated ruling. 3. The Arbiter shall find appropriate players to perform the adjudication. He will tell you their ruling and will also tell you whether or not that ruling is subject to appeal. 4. Any appeal against the ruling must be mailed to the Arbiter within 7-days of receiving the notification, whereupon the Arbiter shall obtain a 2nd ruling from another Adjudicator and notify you of that decision. 5. Please note, in the appeal process, additional analysis may be submitted by both players. 6. This 2nd ruling would be final and no further appeal will be accepted from either player.
