The only restriction that is used in qualification tournaments is to avoid players of the same country to play in the last three rounds, but I doubt for computer chess that makes any sense. If both Chess Tiger and Rebel join and there are so few players that a round robin is played, then I would avoid them playing in the last three rounds if I were the tournament director. José.
