1- Handicaps in the top group We propose to suppress the sentence "no handicap in the top group" in the definition of Class A tournaments. In fact our feeling is that a game should be ranked only by taking into account its characteristics (duration, handicap) and without considering the other games even if they take part in the top group games. 2 - Lower level of the EGF ranking database Actually the lower level of the EGF ranking database is 20 kyu. This lower level is not coherent with the use of various European GO federations, which rank the beginners as 30 kyu. Then we propose to start the EGF ranking at 30 kyu, this is also important for youth who can see their progress more accurately.
