A brief summary about what are E-Points was very necessary, I've just added some explanations and links in Help section and terms and conditions (Membership). See the FICGS chess freestyle tournaments rules and this summary about what are E-Points...
Feel free to ask for more explanations if something's still unclear... About the freestyle cup :
"FIDE GM & IM, FICGS / ICCF GM, SM & IM are invited to enter the waiting list for free until one week before the start of the tournament ! .. Please just send a message to webmaster through My account page to register. You may be asked to send a copy of your passport or ID card.
An extra fee, usually 30% of the entry fee, will be added to the entry fee 7 days before the start of the tournament. "
Best wishes, Thibault
