Tell that to Jonathan Rowson - Scottish and British Champion!
I think the wording of your motion, Andy, is so poor that it cannot legitimately be amended to anything sensible. I know what you are getting at but as the ECF case against FIDE should show, and echoed by the Blackpool Congress Small Claims Court case, you don't want to get involved in legal action. I believe your motion is so full of loopholes that it could leave CS open to legal action.
Andy, ELO is totally the wrong term to use. Almost every 4 figure rating is an ELO rating. A FIDE rating is something quite different. Please try to stick to the term FIDE rating for what you want.
