Since last WOC, the WOF Council has decided to review the WOC rules and proposes to include some technical changes to better reflect our current playing conditions.The WOF Council has also spoken with women players who have expressed the desire to have semi-finals and final for the women title (as opposed to just a final as it is today). After consulting a lot of women players, the Council agreed to this change and would like to propose a new set of rules for the Women World Othello Championship including semi-finals.
These two changes are now presented to you so that you can review them and vote to accept or refuse each proposal.
The WOF Council and the WOC sponsor want to boost junior play and have decided to give a "Young player World Othello Champion" title during the WOC with the possibility for each nation to add a young player to its team. Unfortunately, as the teams had to be decided early, it was impossible to set up some rules and have a worldwide vote before announcing the teams. It was therefore decided to immediately add this "youth competition" to the 2016 WOC and let the annual federations meeting decide whether to make it permanent and to decide the final set of rules to be used in later WOC. You will find the corresponding set of rules at the end of the included document (after the proposals on which you are asked to vote).
Federation:
Do you accept Proposal 1 (Women’s semi-finals)? YES / NO
Do you accept Proposal 2 (Technical changes)? YES / NO

女棋手多玩两轮，这个我觉得无可厚非，但有一个bug是：假设有一位女棋手进入了混合组的半决赛，那其余三位要做什么？斗地主吗？之前的规则是只要有一位及以上的女棋手进入半决赛，女子决赛取消。作者: egg 时间: 2016-8-10 15:46
5. Women’s Semi-finals
If one or several women are qualified for the WOC semi-finals, no women’s semi-final shall be played.
Instead, all women playing on the WOC semi-finals will be ranked according to their final order of finish
after the WOC final and third place playoff. The higher ranked woman will be awarded the title of
Women’s World Othello Champion.
If no woman is qualified for the WOC semi-finals:
The top-ranked woman in the WFRL will play against the fourth-ranked woman. This game will be
scheduled to start at the same time as the first games of the WOC semi-finals.
The second-ranked woman player in the WFRL will play against the third-ranked woman player. This
game will be scheduled to start at the same time as the second games of the WOC semi-finals.
Each semi-final match will be a one game match. For each semi-final, the higher ranked woman player in
the WFRL shall have the choice of colour or draw win (see IV.9)
The two winners of the semi-finals will advance to the final.
6. Women’s playoff for third place
The two losers in the women’s semi-finals will play a single playoff game for third place. This game will
be scheduled to start at the same time as the first game of the WOC final (and the WOC playoff for third
place). The higher ranked woman player in the WFRL shall have the choice of colour or draw win (see
IV.9).
7. Women’s Final
A one game final will be played between the two winners of the women’s semi-finals. This game will be
scheduled to start at the same time as the second game of the WOC final. The higher ranked woman player
in the WFRL shall have the choice of colour or draw win (see IV.9). The winner will be awarded the title
of Women’s World Othello Champion.
