If you are commenting on how the ssdf's ratings compare to FIDE ratings, there is no real sense of 'accurate'. The pools are entirely separate, and therefore attempts at comparison between the two are meaningless. It is for this reason that it is impossible for one list to be 'underrated', because the two lists have nothing to do with one another. -Kevin > > > I hate to open up a can of worms here, but it would seem that recent results >suggest that the SSDF list is Pretty Accurate.
