CHESS RATING SURVEY RESULTS
---------------------------
There were only 9 responses to my survey, but here are the results:
USCF Rating Class Number of Players Positions (Ladder 53)
---------------- ----------------- ---------------------
Master (2200-2399) 1 38
Expert (2000-2199) 2 1,3
'A' (1800-1999) 3 4,24,40
'B' (1600-1799) 1 14
'C' (1400-1599) 0 -
'D' (1200-1399) 2 27,37
There were not enough responses to support a proveable conclusion, but
my feeling is that the ladder has not been in existence long enough
for all the higher rated players to filter to the top and all the lower
rated players to filter towards the bottom. Given enough time, this will
tend to occur.
Thanks to everyone who responded.
