Some web pages are missing a Next page feature !
For instance Player tables - I only get the first 20 rated players + myself & the players rated immediately above and below me.
Or Find Player - From 1500 to 1600 - 20 results and no more even though there are 100's (most probably). Not 100s but 12s definetely.

... yes and I found the following line:
xenaphobe 1200 120 120 0 0
he has a 1200 rating with 120 games played and all won? I guess this is a mistake!
There should be also a table not just for the rating, but for the most games won, a table with the smalest number of lost games, ... 😛
(I know the future leading guy in the category "most games lost"... 😉)

There were a number of instances of this sort of rating manipulation in the past, by several different nicknames/groups. When these abuses are discovered, The Great, Wise, and Benevolent Powers Who Lead Us tend to reset said ratings back to 1200.
