Of course the comments I made are based on an exact elo diff of 500 pts. If we
assume for a moment that you have never drawn against someone rated over 500
points above you then we might also conclude that many of your opponents were
rated even MORE THAN 500 points above you. Now, if we assume that when we
calculated the rating difference of people rated over 500 points more than you
when they played you, it may be that the following is approx true: In all the
games that I have played with players rated over 500 points stronger than me the
average difference between our ratingsa at the time of the game was 675 (pick a
number) points greater; then: You would expect expect that in all of those games
the score would be 49 to 1, against you. Do you see my point?
