That is it You must have misunderstood me or something. I said exactly what you are saying now, namely that they have to get a certain performance (2500+2norms) ONCE in their lifetime, and can go on hanging their queen in every game thereafter. Therefore, using a list of -2500 GM's in support of an argument that 2500 ELO is enough to be a GM is still flawed, because their title is irrespective of their current strength. -- GCP
