If chessmetrics is so good, why haven’t we got ...

I was over reading the specifics at www.chessmetrics.com and I’m very impressed with the work Jeff Sonas has done. Why don’t we have it here on Red Hot Pawn? It seems that way we would know how we compare to the all-time great players.

Because RHP isn't a chess statistics site.

Freddie2006,
I didn’t get that chessmetrics ratings were anything about statistics. I got that statistics were what his site was about, but the rating he developed was the most predictive rating system on the planet. And I’m thinking that when I enter a tournament, I’d really like to know my chances. Thanks for your input.

To tell the truth, I am not so impressed.

But maybe cubes4 who has played 0 moves and only posted on this subject was only trying to get us to look at his site.

😳
The shame - suckered into looking at this by some fairly obvious spam.

More like he and you aswell are both the same player... who has been banned before.

Not saying who I think you are.

But you had a few accounts banned at the same time...

Name those accounts. Either put up, shut up, or grow up.
