Some Notes:•The Rating list is based on:- 34445 chess engine games, played on PlayChess server, during August 2008- Different Bullet, Blitz, Rapid and Slow time controls are used, but mainly Blitz• The overall draw percentage of the rating list: (based on 34445 games) is: 56%• All doubles, up to 22 moves, lost on time games are removed from the database• The ranking provides a quite useful info about who are the strongest book users!• Actually there are 2 (two) main important factors for getting a high Elo rating: - Of course, a very strong opening book and very fast hardware is needed as well- My used hardware (played with username SedatChess): QX9650 @3.80GHz- I've included/merged also the games by Spearfish (used Perfect13x book too)• Generated by Bayeselo program, min 100 games; starting Elo calculation: 3200• Source of mostly PlayChess games: BIG thanks to ChessGladiators‘s site
