Very Slow Again

TransWarp has been sitting idle a lot lately, I tried an experiment where 2900-3200 rated players could play unrated, but the formula didn't take. I have asked for some support on this, but haven't recieved an answer on this yet, on how to make the formula where players who can put up a point per game plays rated, but players who are very strong but cannot put up a point can play unrated. I think this is fair as TW would be risking 32 points for nothing.

NECF-InSchools did play some rated games, but the formula didn't work as I intended, so what should have been unrated games were rated, but TW hung in there and won all the games. I'm now trying a new formula that should let those rated 2800+ to -700 below my rating, play unrated....hopefully this time it will work. It's a shame to sit idle.

Hopefully, everyone will have a great month of May, with so little going on, I didn't have many posts for April, I wish I did have more, but with no games...it was like 8 days without a blitz game until NECF-InSchools played, much more on the other time controls, still been 27 days without a bullet game, last played by GM Bassem Amin and 19 days for standard, again by GM Bassem Amin (B-Amin).

I hope my posting of the stats when TW achieved 4000 didn't put anyone off, I thought it was an event worth posting at least for my own personal records (not records like in set a record, but record as in recording data). TW did all the work, except for the books and some settings.

And now a word, as usual, for hopefully TW's benefit, just paid another $40.00 for the website, have earned a whopping $7.22 in about a year of trying, not even enough for a deposit, lol. But have to try.
