EGF Rating per Rank
The relationship between rank and rating in the EGF Rating System is the following
- A dan rank d is represented by the rating range where r is 2000+100*d +/- 50
- A kyu rank k is represented by the rating range where r is between 2100-100*k +/- 50
Rank Rating 7d 2650 - 2750 6d 2550 - 2650 5d 2450 - 2550 4d 2350 - 2450 3d 2250 - 2350 2d 2150 - 2250 1d 2050 - 2150 1k 1950 - 2050 2k 1850 - 1950 3k 1750 - 1850 4k 1650 - 1750 5k 1550 - 1650 6k 1450 - 1550 7k 1350 - 1450 8k 1250 - 1350 9k 1150 - 1250 10k 1050 - 1150 11k 950 - 1050 12k 850 - 950 13k 750 - 850 14k 650 - 750 15k 550 - 650 16k 450 - 550 17k 350 - 450 18k 250 - 350 19k 150 - 250 20k 100 - 150
tapir: afaik the formula is wrong. 2050-2150 is 1d not 2100-2200.
Herman: This needs a bit of a rewrite, I think. In several countries, you do indeed obtain a certain ranks when you exceed the midpoint (ie, you are awarded 1d when you get above 2100 and lose the 1d again if you fall under 2000). I've now rewritten it to indicate the correct rating ranges
The BGA created their own system to allocate (award) ranks based on ratings. It now sets 5d BGA as 4d EGF.
tapir: The admittedly small sample of players with the same surname as me (3 in total) indicates the relation between rank and rating is indirectly proportional. The higher the rating the lower the rank. :D
