Is it possible to pull the win-loss records of even games from KGS or IGS, and use that with bayeselo? Would that give a sort of conversion between kyu/dan levels and elo ratings? Terry McIntyre <[email protected]>
Unix/Linux Systems Administration Taking time to do it right saves having to do it twice. ________________________________ From: Don Dailey <[email protected]> Yes, I think that is the right way to do it. Larry Kaufman says go has many more levels of skill than most games. I think a fairly simple way to do this is to just measure the range of ELO ratings, going from weak beginner to top player. In Chess the ELO range for humans is about 2500 ELO give or take. In checkers it is surely much lower and I would assume in go it would be quite large. What is the range on the servers that use ELO? We could compare that to chess servers. Don
