Did you notice that she achieved this through yet another time out, bravo, real champion stuff!

believe that the highest rating is based somewhat on the ratings of the top 10 players. doubt there has been more than a 100 point difference between 1 and 10 at any time on RHP. As the average rating of the top 10 move up - with Xeno it was around 1900, Schliemann around 2000, David Tebb around 2050 and now Skeeter pushing 2100+ - this reflects both an increase in the quality of the top 10 and the increase of RHP players. Tournaments and clan games have also encouraged the top players to play each other more helping push the top rating higher.
I hit #20 with a 1710 a few years ago, now I am #37 with a 1909. The competition here really has gotten much better (I choose not to believe that this is computer driven) over the past few years. I would expect the top rating to be close to 2300 within 9-12 months.

EDIT: 2599th...
Skeeter doesn't deserve the number 1 spot ...
Sorry to be that harsh with my opinion, but where is her sportsmanship ???
Yes, I have taken timeouts myself (before you all start), BUT only if people take the mickey with their vacation settings, simply not move at all anymore, or move in other games and not in mine... etc.
Michelle's latest increase from roughly 2100 to 2184 is based almost 100% on timeouts - Well done Michelle, I bow to your superiority...
No regards regarding this matter, Michelle

Ah yes. Skeeter only enters those 3 day T/O tournaments only to claim timeouts IMO. People tend to forget those, or when they go away for a few days. She has a nose for it, I'll tell you. Quickly move, and then hope they don't move in time. ðŸ˜
