A lot of her points are gained in claiming timeouts in lost positions against players on vacation.
So if she deserves it?....
She certainly deserves to be the most ruthless number one...

Quirine, you should post such comments in the 'an unpopular' thread. That's for accusing skeeter of not playing fair. This thread is only for appraising her. Or so it seems...

Je hebt gelijk. Het was mijn frustratie die van zich deed spreken (al ben ik zelf niet tegen een time-out van haar aangelopen)

Well done Michelle. You deserve number 1.

I am almost sure that it is also the first female number 1 here. 🙂

No, I believe Bessyboo held that spot for a while, and maybe even Babe at one point. Can anyone actually remember instead of guessing like me?!

Yes, Bessyboo was the first to take the top spot, over two years ago.

you may be right that this is part of skeeter's style ,

there is a good place for timeout tricks and swindles to be played - they are within the rules, this is the game i know over the board also, chess is weaker without it, and i imagine you know it also.

without these tricks chess becomes a boring convention of "i will respectfully yield in some pathetic gentlemanly game of polite boring rubbish".

skeeter is obviously a tough nut to crack in EVERY sense.

(how often does kasparov lose on timeout? - but he will win on it with no hesitation)
