| The ratings listed below are from ICC.
I don't see this as high. In a system where 3000 is the top, 1500 to 1600
sounds just about normal to me.
For information on ratings systems in general, you should take a look at Dr
Mark Glickman's website. His Glicko I is what FICS ratings system is based
on. I'm not sure what the ICC formula is.
Standard Blitz Bullet Wild Bughouse Loser's

std dev: 332.95 467.17 374.11 236.95 334.45 229.20

# est act: 4685 18470 6154 324 105 534 580
2227 2067
But don't let the facts confuse the realities here. It's far too much fun to
flame everyone that you don't know.
