some time ago, I posted number of games played by people in the period (approx) 2006-2010. I have had occasion to revisit this and now have some numbers for the period mid 2001-mid(late) 2011 or roughly a decade.
As before there are some cavaets: people at the start of the period with established ratings were considered to be at 26 games played - so these numbers are not quite exact.
Some other information:
- of people with at least 100 regular games played, 39% of them had established active ratings. (i.e. 61% had <=25 active games)
- of the players counted, 72% of them played less than 25 games in this period.
- of the players counted, 86% of them played less than 50 games in this period.
A graph and list of the top 20 or so is given below. (I came in at #39 :-) ) If you want the whole Excel file it is at: http://www.victoriachess.com/cfc/dat...2001-2011.xlsx
