After following the tournament sponsored by Corus, I became interested in just
how FIDE determines what kind of performance is need to score a norm.  How many
are needed before you get the title?  Are the scores only counted against
already titled players (so you can drop a game to the tail-ender and it won't
hurt your norm chances)?

I'm assumeing a round-robin event.
