Go up one level in this thread


You are mathematically right, but I did not want to put a questioning mark to
the rating the pal gives to himself. It is only natural to believe you are
somewhat stronger that you are. Besides, it this low levels of around 1800
players, it is well posible to be really 1800 against similar human competition
and get lot less against machines that does not commit the kind of mistakes 1800
players does. This is another way to say ratings means different things
according if human or computer are measured. If you ask me, I would say that
winning one game to 19 against that kind of machine means you are at most a 1550
to 1600 player.
My best
