SPECIAL NOTE: English is the official language of IECC as it is for some other international email chess clubs. While the IECC Guidelines are available in several languages, and efforts are made by Staff to effectively communicate with non-English speaking members as much as possible, Staff cannot be responsible for non-English speaking members misunderstanding email messages sent to them, nor is Staff obliged to translate messages written in any language but English. Therefore, it is the responsibility of non-English speaking members to ensure their email messages are clearly understood by Staff.
