Go up one level in this thread



 to find the gain in elo per mhz you should focus on one program and note the
different elo ratings at different speeds . one thing i believe is that the
speed increase helps comp vs comp more than comp vs people .

i also believe that even though ssdf gives its ratings based on 40/2 that most
people play much faster time controls vs computer ,who has the time .so i think
ssdf should some how produce a rating list that shows how comp do vs each other
at faster time controls .i think the list would look alot different if it were
based on 15 sec a move or 30 min a game ect .but i think you are right when you
say ssdf is inflated vs fide list . i think the real challenge would be to try
and come up with a formula to convert ssdf to an approx fide elo + - 50 .that
would be worth something for sure .
