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

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!

What does Glicko RD numbers refer to?

The stats I'd really like to see are the average opponent ratings when players Win, Lose, Draw.  I think those stats are very revealing.  Oh, and the Glicko RD numbers would also be interesting....

I have looked at the bell curve for the view players, the curve shows that very few new players learn the game as it is skewed to the right.

If someone needs statistical analysis on my part to tell them on how to deduct this I will, however you do need to have a sound statiscical base knowledge of it as I will explain with the sigma values, one, two and 3 sigmas which covers 99.99 of the area under the bell, do note that this curve is also called the Gaussian curve  or the normal curve, the best reference as an introduction but far from complete is the Wikipedia link:

They're FAST in consideration of their HIGH ratings!!!

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.

Can you tell me where you obtained those ratings. I am fairly new to this site and yet have not found this nor the rating of the online computer for the different levels nor I to challenge a player in my ranking, which I do not have since I have not participated in any tournaments in the last 40 years.

When I was twenty my ranking was 1350 or so.

Thank you and have a great evening.

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)

Sheesh, BillWall is such a legend.

I was around 1hr. 50min. at one point ^^ but I'm only a 1600-1700 player.
