The Fastest Masters on Chess.com

Here is a little piece of Chess.com trivia for you all.

I did a little survey of the top 50 rated players on this site, and here are the list of players among them taking less than 2 hours per move:

  1. Ed_Top  (2404) 53min. 16sec.
  2. TulsaDavid (2430) and Zug (2415) tied at 1hr. 11min.
  3. BillWall (2469) 1hr. 26min.
  4. Golwar (2451) 1hr. 29min.
  5. Gala (2388) 1hr. 41min.
  6. Czechmate (2440) 1hr. 47min.

All others in the top 50 take longer than 2 hours per move.

Regards, Zug

    QUOTE: NM ozzie_c_cobblepot:  I'm not top 50, but I am really trying to get under the magic 2 hr mark. Currently I'm at 2200 rating and 2 hr 5 min!

    Considering the number of games you play I think that's amazing.   All your opponents would say, Thank you.

    These are the turn based ratings at Chess.com.  You can see the list by clicking on your Online Chess menu entry on the right side of your home page, then by clicking on View Players on the right of the screen that comes up.

    Not sure what this statistic means, but let's continue the statistics of these players.  Average rating of opponents are as follows:

    Ed_top 2102
    Czechmate 1928
    Golwar 1822
    Gala 1802
    Zug 1788
    TulsaDavid 1720
    billwall 1486 (by far the weakest opponents - so can play faster)

    Strongest opponent beaten:
    Czechmate 2464
    Gala 2415
    Ed_top  2412
    Zug  2393
    TulsaDavid  2320
    billwall  2279 (by time forfeit in 9 moves - so unfair)
    Golwar  2185

    Average number of moves per game:
    Ed_top  49
    Czechmate  36
    Gala  33
    TulsaDavid  29
    Golwar  29
    Zug  26
    billwall  26 (less if you count the unrated games)
