dont know what ecf is
ECF have released the 2009 grades, what is yours?
Sort:
English chess grade.
mine's about 140 after 6 games
11th aug 2009 - 10th april 2010
Bit of a bumb isn't it? in anycase, my 7.5/8 = 167
You're only down as playing 3 games on www.chessnuts.org Dave.
Or even www.chessnuts.org.uk
I think the ecf ratings make no sense to anyone but the members of the ecf , like the old German ingo zahl ratings. Mine used to be 97 and made no sense to me or anyone else except maybe the Germans ? When will you blokes get with the rest of the world and have ELO ratings ? I think it would help chess for there to be one rating system used by all..... don't you ?
given that there is a formula to convert ECF to FIDE, I'm not convinced that the UK having its own little system is a big problem. With that said, I do belive the ECF is investigating the pro & cons of a change over.
ECF x 8 + 650 = FIDE
(FIDE - 650) / 8 = ECF

For some reason everyones ECF grade seemed to be bumped up by 20 points this year. Anyone know if there was a reason for that?
152 - not bad for a 13-year old
Mine is 122, it would be good to hear what yours are.
