well as rating standards I was 2000-2100... which is master
2200+ national master
2400+ Int master
2500+ Grand Master

and then there is nothing after that...

over 80% of the people cant go over 1800 :) just to have an idea..

those that play time to time are around 500-1000 pts ... which are pretty much easy beats :) meaning any 1200+ can beat them easily..

In the United States the USCF ELO rating of 2000-2199 is called "expert" or "candidate master".
The worldwide used FIDE ELO rating system is more conservative and one needs to adjust about 100 points in order to compare titles. A FIDE 1900 - 2100 is about the same strength in ELO as a USCF 2000 -2200. In other words, USCF = FIDE - 100.

USCF rating of 2200 -2299 is master.
FIDE rating of 2100 to 2199 is master

2000 - 2099 are not considered master ratings on either chart. Unless you are exactly 2100 FIDE rated, I don't see how you can say you're a master.

I'm a strong player but don't play as much as I use to. I'm 2000 to 2199 USCF "expert" strength.

"Chess has the power to make men happy."

I don't know who said it, nor this:

"Life is too short for chess."

I hate chess I just don't see the point to it, I usually give in after I lose my queen. Trivial pursuit is my game, I have a head full of odd facts.

:confused: You hate chess? Thats a shame, really. Truly a strategic game... you use logic and tact to gain the better hand over your opponent :D haha

Sounds truly like a "testosterone" game, right?

I would go so slow I might bore you into submission. Scrabble is my game.
NSA rating 997, which is okay, but many are better.

Ooooooh! You'd beat the pants off of me on the REAL game... and you wouldn't even notice!!! :wink::wink::wink: I'm a writer, and I play with words all day long, which is why many word games are easy for me. But the REAL game of Scrabble is not my strength although I love to play it. If I'm ever in your neck of the woods, I'll give ya a holler, and maybe you can even pretend to let me win once or twice!
