Your first post was excellent, but why didn't you stop there. You don't know the strength difference between a FIDE IM and an ICCF IM at 1 0. In all fairness I think that Chessfun thought that she/he (?) had defeated a FIDE IM, but that is beside the point. >The one that I don't understand is as other people don't get to interpret >everything that was written in a rational and objectifies way, and get to >write absurds as " jealousies ", "evil" and even to insinuate another >absurd , "sexism". The sexism point was aimed towards the apparent difference in objectivity compared to PilgrimDan (the subtle remark from Mark Ryan was easily misunderstood). Not at you as an individual. I'm sorry if felt misinterpreted. Best wishes... Mogens
