In Response To: Manouk Borzakian on how to determine the #1 player (Timothy Chow)

I'm not sure anyone has been following it, I don't recall seeing it discussed here but for the past couple months a contest has been going on to find a new system to replace ELO for Chess. Anyone who is interested might wish to look here: http://kaggle.com/chess and http://kaggle.com/blog/2010/09/21/elo-vs-the-rest-of-the-world-at-the-halfway-mark/
