are casual chess players considered strong ? I mean, in real world..?
1100 ?
1200 ?
1300 ?

I've posted a couple of times and instead of returning to the original post/forum menu (can't quite remember what it does), it's taken me to a completely different post.
Luckily the post has gone to the right place ***fingers crossed on this one 🙂 ***
