New USCF Rule book

Running Chess Tournaments
1

I’m not sure this is the right forum, but does anyone know when / if an updated version of the USCF Official Rules of Chess (6th ed) would come out? Would / should this include updated material on certification for TD’s, writing moves after playing them, electronic scoresheet (like MonRoi), and Blitz Chess?

Thank you,

It is unlikely that there will be a new version of the rulebook for some time.

The small number of rule changes and a link to the current TD Certification rules can be found in the latest TD Corner on-line and in the affiliate news letter.

Just use the following URL to get to a page with both the TD Corner link and the 2006 TD Certification rules link:

The 4th edition came out in 1993, the 5th in 2003. So maybe 2013?
