Thankyou >for correcting this definite mistake. >------- >Terry Ripple ---------- Hi Tim, So when not counting the draws, means out of 27 games Hiarcs7.32 has a 67% winning advantage over Hiarcs6 so this calculates that Hiarcs7.32 would be about a USCF rating difference of 120 points stronger at games in 5 min. Does this sound about right? SSDF rates H6 at a 2524 at 40/2hr. so where is H7.32 on the SSDF list? And then i need to convert to USCF Scale which is about 100 points or so more. I`am getting my SSDF information from the March 28,99 rating list. ------ Terry
