This perfectly matches to what this system designed for and encourage players - stay away of playing checkers. You above Ron King now and I have to play very hard in IN and/or AL state tournament this year to keep my 1st position by winning 10-12 games out of 14 !This rating system works against active players - we learned this well several years ago and nothing surprise me. On this list I was 1st, 2nd, 3rd and even one time 8th (ha-ha !) and every time when we get new list I never know where I am.
Do you know why Ron King rating dropped significantly ? Because he won World Title match against Richard Beckwith in 2010 and won USA GAYP National 2011 only narrowly !!!
When I am in good form - I am winning more games and in this case my rating doesn't drop much. However - it's slowly dropping.
