EGF Rating per Rank

    Keywords: Rules

The theoretical relationship between rank and rating in the EGF Rating System is the following

  • A kyu rank k is represented by the rating range where r is between 2100-100*k +/- 50
  • A dan rank d is represented by the rating range where r is 2000+100*d +/- 50
  • A pro rank p is represented by the rating range where r is 2670+30*p +/- 15

In table form:

 Rank   Rating
  9p    2925 - 2955
  8p    2895 - 2925
  7p    2865 - 2895

  5p    2805 - 2835
  4p    2775 - 2805
  3p    2745 - 2775
  2p    2715 - 2745

 15k	 550 -  650
 16k	 450 -  550
 17k	 350 -  450
 18k	 250 -  350
 19k	 150 -  250
 20k	 100 -  150

In several countries, you obtain a certain rank when you exceed the midpoint (e.g. you get 1d when you get above 2100) and lose that rank again when you drop under the next lower midpoint (e.g. you go back to 1k again if you fall under 2000).

Some explanations for the exciting table. avgGoR = rating of a theoretical average -n-dan. avgBGA = rating of average -n- dan from interpolation across all active players from 19k to 5p. 7 dan in BGA terms is defined as 7.5 dan. This table takes as its basis the latest european rating list as displayed in EGD, all ranks above 7d are changed to be 7d for the purpose of making this table without any headache.
