What you seem to be forgetting is that he is #1 in the list
where the other strongest grandmasters are also competing TOO.

The whole point of the 5-min rating system was to sizzle
the people who said he got there by picking opps and such
by preventing it with a new category. As Robert said, it
was essentially the anti-roman list. And now he's topping
it.

I quite frankly can't think of a bigger irony for the
moment.
