Wich rating do you find more fair?
The Kleier where you cant loose much or the
WCS where you must win much? |

The Kleier-Rating is definitely nearer to the truth and more accurate. Even if I am better ranked on WSC, there are many well-known names which arenīt on the place they deserve to be - on Kleier they are. For me, there is no question which one is better and there is a reason why the ISF choosed the Kleier-Rating for the world-rankings.
But especially the 2004 Kleier-Rating shows two points which have to be corrected in the future.
First: I donīt think that someone deserves to be on place one by just playing three top 30 players in all his games. He should have a good ranking for good playing and many wins, but, just in my view, you have to proof your strength against good players more often.
Second: The 2004 Ranking also shows that many people have become better players in the last weeks, but if they played many games in 2003, their overall ranking wonīt change much. There is a discrepancy of, sometimes, a few hundred points. So what is the players real strength?
I think it should be based more on his actual results.

Agree with Faithless.
Check out the opponents of JvG [in the all-time-resultlist of Kleier]
He only got a win % of 48 but he played only against players with + 1500 rating points. (except 3 games or so..)
Think this is better then win 100 games of players with 1100 - 1300 points |
