Both you and ShaktiFire are right in that respect. There was a link to human strenght. My point is that because of the isolation of a human player pool the ratings have gone their own way. IMO a rating of 600 is as okay as a rating of say 5200. Only the same algorithms for calculationg the strenghts are used. Reversed it's like trying to assign an accurate rating to 19th century players. You can compare their relative strenghts, but can not match them corrctly anymore. You both are right if the SSDF ratings give way to believes that computer programs are Elo 2600 or 2700 compared to other humans, and .... well, that might well be the case .....:) Jeroen ;-}
