Lasker Memorial after Rd.5 – Brisbane Chess Club

Interesting to note that the lower rated ACF rated players are now completely out of step with reality.
See the cross-table below for proof.
Instead of asking, “What is your ACF rating?”, better to ask, “What is your star sign?”
You will get a more accurate response.
The World rating System, FIDE, goes from 1400 to 3000. Why not use it?

My favorite quote from the very successful Bryon Capital DDO Toowoomba 2026 was,

“No way that guy was 300!!” referring to his opponent’s ACF rating.

Time to join the rest of the world. Brigadoon is closed until further notice.
