Subject: USCF <-> FIDE ratings conversion (?)

Author: Mike S.

Date: 15:53:09 01/18/02

Somebody pointed me to this ratings conversion applet (at the website of a swiss
chess club):

http://sg.biel-bienne.com/vorstand.htm#USCF

I don't know the formula though; they do not just subtract a fixed value (the
difference is smaller for higher rating numbers).

Can somebody acknowledge that conversion? I'd like to use, and maybe recommend
that webpage to convert USCF rating estimations of chess computers and programs
to FIDE elo, and vice versa. But I thought, better get an 2nd opinion or
information from an ratings expert before doing so.

Thanks,
M.Scheidl
