How to Submit an Event for NWSRS Rating

1. The files. Most events submitted for rating are run in SwissSys. The files needed for rating are the final round files. Since most tournaments are 5-rounds, this would be the files created by SwissSys that end in .S5C (or if you are using the old DOS version of the program, they would have an extension of .5C). But if it was a 3-round tournament it would be .S3C and so on. Also, occasionally, tournaments are run in a round-robin format, in which case the file to send would have the extension .SRR. There will be one of these files for every section in your tournament. People usually e-mail these files to me.
2. Occasionally, there are tournaments run by hand or using some other system. In that case you need to provide the information to me in tabular form (Excel makes a convenient way to do this). The following is an example of the format for submitting things by hand:
