Onderwerp: Last rant

I'm going to say this one more time and then shut up. There is a basic flaw in the ratings system as applied to backgammon games. It simply should not be possible for a player to rise to the top of the ratings in fewer than 100 games. Yet the top 3 rated hypergammon players and 2 of the top 3 backgammon players have fewer than 100 games behind them. Any system that allows this is broken and needs to be fixed.

alanback: I would agree if the universe of players was larger, however with a limited number of players who have that level of experience it doesn't seem too odd to me.
Thankfully the list includes the number of games, so we can easily look at it any way we want.
