USBGF Ratings and Stats: Mission and Policy

In Response To: USBGF Ratings and Stats: Mission and Policy (Christian Munk-Christensen)

All the response posts make sense, and perhaps I overestimate the degree of the problem. However, in the US, there is a definite class of successful Intermediate players that stay in that division regardless of their level of success. ABT directors seem to be loath to force players up to the Open division.

Perhaps actually reporting the rating of such players will make it easier to bring these players into the top division.

As for what to rate: I think all main event matches should be included (including Consolation ant Last Chance) and the 'main' Jackpots (usually two: Masters and Advanced jackpots). No doubles, smaller jackpots, mini matches, blitzes or variant events.
