Question about Thematic Tournaments

Hello,

Does a thematic tournament have influence on your rating?
I could not find the answer on the site.

yes, they do.. they are rated

edit: but a set piece game is not, or any game that says unrated, obviously

thx

I sent feedback about Queen's Indian Defense banded duel tournaments (1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 b6).

id play that, need some work there...

what time/bank?
