I guess that you mean from 2600 and I guess that it is only one game.

to get from 2600 to less than 2490 losing 20 games in a row is enough.
I doubt if there is a GM with this record.

I do not know about a GM who scores only 1% of the points.


You start with suppose a super GM.

Can you give me a practical example of a super GM who got performance of 1800 or
even only 2000 in the last 20 games that (s)he played?

Can you give me a practical example of a GM that scores less than 1 point in the
last 20 games(even 1/2 out of 20 is more than the 1% that you suppose)?
