Where there is adequate supervision of play, (for example one arbiter for at most three games) the Competition Rules shall apply.

2. The arbiter shall make a ruling according to Article 4 (The act of moving the pieces), only if requested to do so by one or both players.
3. An illegal move is completed once the opponent's clock has been started. The opponent is then entitled to claim that the player completed an illegal move before the claimant has made his move. Only after such a claim, shall the arbiter make a ruling. However, if both Kings are in check or the promotion of a pawn is not completed, the arbiter shall intervene, if possible.
  1. The flag is considered to have fallen when a player has made a valid claim to that effect. The arbiter shall refrain from signaling a flag fall, but he may do so if both flags have fallen.
  2. To claim a win on time, the claimant must stop both clocks and notify the arbiter.
For the claim to be successful, the claimant’s flag must remain up and the opponent’s flag down after the clocks have been stopped.
