Here is a post of mine about it.<BR/>http://temposchlucker.blogspot.com/2005/02/from-bungler-to-crack-in-02-seconds.html<BR/><BR/>I don't reackon with ratings below 1100. It is an estimation ofcourse, it can be 2.3x or 3.5x or so.<BR/>When you differ 700+ points, you can't statistically win (within a lifetime that is)<BR/>That is true for 1100 and 1800, but also for 2100 Temposchluckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07977208394417444785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2197931634372460826.post-84640155906207784712007-05-22T20:23:00.000-07:002007-05-22T20:23:00.000-07:00Tempo"S",That is an interesting take.

Just asking, cuz 100 to 2000 = 3^19 which is an awefully big number. Big enough that the 100 player is about a 1500 player by the time the game is over :-).hisbestfriendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06713960560378854865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2197931634372460826.post-62516775863447114002007-05-22T17:00:00.000-07:002007-05-22T17:00:00.000-07:00I reackon a factor 3 difference in speed for every...I reackon a factor 3 difference in speed for every 100 ratingpoints. So a difference of 200 points means you are 3x3=9 times as fast.<BR/>At a rating of 1800 you can play a 5 minute blitz game without serious deterioration of your game. With 1700 you can play 10 minute games, with 1600 you can play 25 minute games etc.. The difference in speed is not because you think faster, but it is the Temposchluckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07977208394417444785noreply@blogger.com
