don't forget guys I am only talking about a one day rapid play rated event. In my opinion from CS point of view CS has nothing to do with non CS events. Only the Richardson and Spens are FIDE rated which are one game per day events. The SNCL is also a non CS event. From what I am reading, there is no major objection about the rapid play being FIDE rated apart from one or two. We will just wait and see what happens and amend future rapid play events accordingly. The rapid play grade would have little to do with International selection
