Yes, well, I guess it is all in how you define 'Best'. 🙂

Good luck ET, maybe one day I will give you a good game.

It looks very, very difficult, but I think English Tal still has a shot.

ET has succeeded regardless of the outcome, even if he does not get a rematch with Cludi he will still be number two chess player on the site out of 40-50 thousand?
I said earlier and I believe that all in this final group have proved themselves to be exceptional, but of course I want to see ET win as he is my clan leader! (no offense Cludi) 🙂

It appears there are 223,000 players on this site. Go to player look-up. It will give the number at the bottom of the page.

The question is how many active?


So to be in the top 2,000 would put one in the top 1%.

To be in the top 10 is insane. Definitely someone who could compete at the highest level.

there are only 18803 active player on this site. Active means thay have played one move in the last 100 days. Top 180 is 1%. To be in top 10 is still insane.

Look at the bottom of the player table - page 1.
It says 1-30 of 18833.
It lists all players active in the last 100 days.

Congratulations cludi!

I want to be the first to congratulate you.... after posting this thread I am going to accept draws in the remaining two games of the 2007 Championship.

(I will post again about the tactics used against Gatecrasher and Salin, two superb and sporting opponents. There are lessons here for us all, some surprising.)

2007 Champion.... cludi.
