Hi.
I am in the middle of a discussion with one of the IECC (International E-mail Chess Club) directors and he is telling me that their rating system favors one color over the other one. For example: White's rating: 1586 Black's rating: 2131 Game result: 0 - 1 New ratings: White's new rating: 1584 Black's new rating: 2132 Now, players switch color. However, the highest rated player still wins: White's rating: 2131 Black's rating: 1586 Game result: 1 - 0 New ratings: White's new rating: 2131 Black's new rating: 1586 Different results !!! Is that common with other rating systems? Javier Fuentes |

Different results !!! Is that common with other rating systems? It is not the case with the BCF grading system, nor the FIDE rating system. Jack Rudd |

No, FIDE-rating doesn't count colours. To submit a file for rating
calculations one only has to give the opponents and the results, no colours. Javier Fuentes wrote: Hi.
