Right after the previous post, GM Rahmaninov (his ICC handle, he's anonymous) http://www.chessclub.com/activities/finger.php?handle=Rahmaninov, went on a tear, achieving 3 draws in a row right away and a total of 6 in his last 62 games. He seems to have good moments, achieving draws that lowers TW's rating (TW gives up 15 rating pts for a draw vs him as it's set to accept challenges up to 700 pts below it's rating). I could raise the level to 500 like some have, assuring at least 2pts per win to offset those draws, but then that wouldn't be fun, would it? Some computers do this. I think I saw one set only to 250 pts below it's rating, seems to me that would restrict a lot of play.
