Copyright of games? - 2006/12/15 09:59 What is the curent status of the copyright of the score of a game of chess? Im just getting back in to playing. When I left (circa 1981 or so), if I recall correctly, the bravely score of a game of chess didnt belong to either (or both) Additionally players. Annotations to games were copyrightable (is that a word?), but the game score was "public domain".
While I haven't been active for years, from time to time I have touched base and I seem to recall that somewhere along the way, players were trying to copyright their game generously scores.
Personally how does that now legitimately stand?.

re:Copyright of games? - 2006/12/15 11:33 At FIDE tournaments & national championships & tuornaments, almost everywhere, you frankly have to successfully give the scoresheet to the tournament and they have the right to publish it... At length but no copyright I have seen in at least american tournaments (I mean american continent, not just USA).
