Hello,
have a look at the results of the data mining I did at:
http://www.ecyrd.com/go/Wiki.jsp?page=Luokituskeskustelu
At the end of the page, there are two tables. The process which produced the German players on IGS was the following: use "find -.de" to generate a list of all players from Germany. Exclude those whose email addresses do not end with the German country code. Only include those with a rating of at least 29 (dan players). Only include those whose identities are more or less obvious from their info or email address. Look those identified up from the official EGF rating list. I think the sample of German dan players is fairly representative. I see no causes of systematic error in the sample set.
It would be interesting to get similar data from Sweden. Which of your dan players play on IGS? What are their IGS ratings?
Regards, Markku
