    Jesus, that is some score.

    My friend was at 2200 something at one point and was British under 16 champion in his youth

    I have funny stories about him and the chess federation which are probably not for public consumption

      However I don't really have any idea what that means (let alone how accurate that little test is) as I know absolutely nothing about chess ratings. Is this the standard system or is FIDE different?
      I got 1580, however, having dabbled with online chess I know my real rating is much lower.

        I got 1635 and my actual rating is 1670 so it is not too bad (although I did rush a little as I was under time pressure)

          I was 10 inches when I was sixteen but as I've got older and I like a drink I'm lucky if it hits 8.5.

          What is the OP boasting about again???

            The cranial circumference measurement thread was last week.

              The doc offered me an operation to make it 10 inches but I just told him straight there was no way he was cutting it in half.
