In Response To: a gnu forum poll? (jm)

"i would like anyone interested to list thier snowie error ratings. not only out of pure curiosity. but i would like for people to resubmit the rates every month or so,to get an idea of how my own game is improving,in comparison with other forum members."

This request will be as effective as asking everyone to rate their driving. Everyone will wind up being above average.

My error rate is 1.7 by the way. That is because if I play poorly, there was something wrong on that particular day, or I was drinking, or someone was chatting with me, or I was playing a fish and making errors on purpose etc. and I shouldn't count that match in my average. I know that when none of those things happen, or anything else that makes me play poorly, I play 1.7.

Forget everyone else. This is not a race, and you wouldn't know which numbers to believe anyway. You should be competing against you. Bring your own error rates down. It is the only thing you have control over and it is all that matters in the end. Do that and you'll win. It is very simple.
