Thank you for your lucid account. But don't we need some inflation mechanism to offset the natural deflation due to the average player (presumably mostly new players) gaining in playing strength while the total pool of rating points stays the same? USCF seems to be reinstituting a "bonus" system giving players with great TPRs bonus points. The point is to offset deflation -- which must be horrific with all the scholastic members USCF has now. Do you have any thoughts on which mechanism is dominant in FIDE? Cheers, Walter
