In other news, uschess.org has introduced some new functions to their Member Services Area. Now, located directly on the player card, one can find links which detail past performance based on year, rating of opponent, or specific opponent, or one can also view past rating history in graph form. I wanted to look up my lifetime stats as a master. I became a master in the late Summer of 2005, so I started with my first full year as a 2200+, which was 2006:
Year #Gms. W D L Score %
| 2006 | 86 | 57 | 10 | 19 | 72.1 |
| 2007 | 84 | 58 | 15 | 11 | 78.0 |
| 2008 | 54 | 31 | 11 | 12 | 67.6 |
| 2009 | 28 | 21 | 5 | 2 | 83.9 |
| 2010 | 34 | 21 | 11 | 2 | 77.9 |
Total 286 188 52 46
Total Draw percentage (Draws/Total Games): 18.2%
Win % in decisive games (Wins/[total games-games drawn]): 80.3%
I was interested to see that my win percentage does seem to be increasing slightly, though my number of games have obviously fallen off significantly.
Sorting according to opponent rating, I noticed in the last twelve months I have played only one player in the rating range 1700-1800, and NO players below the rating of 1700.
Also in the last 12 months:
-I have played the most games against players between the rating 2000-2099, and scored 9 wins and 2 losses, with no draws.
-Against fellow masters I am undefeated, with 3 wins and 6 draws
-Overall I have played 42 games with a record of 27W 12D 3L, or a 78.6 score %
Some other interesting stats:
-My most games ever were played in 2003, the year I broke the 2000 rating barrier. During that calendar year I played 142(!) rated games.
-In 2002 and 2004 I played over 100 rated games (132 and 111 respectively)
