That's right-- our club boasts over 100 players ranked at least in Class A, with ~25 masters and another 25 experts!
The Chess Blog of the Boylston Chess Club... The Boylston Chess Club (BCC) is a part of the Boylston Chess Foundation (BCF).
9 comments:
A certain other club that somehow boasts of being larger than ours has only 60 such players over 1800.
.... and only 165 different players, total.
The Boylston has over 200 players rated at least 1180.
How do we compare with the Marshal Chess Club, or the Mechanics?
Man, I never make it on these lists! What does it take to get on them?
Oh...play better.
;-)
Well, to the Marshall, there is no comparison. They have over 200 people rated above 1900 in this category and a whopping 73 masters! But New York is at least 10-15X the pop. size of the greater Boston area.
The Dallas club is slightly larger than us, with 100 players over 1900 and about 40 masters. Of course the University of Texas-Dallas has been drawing star players for years.
The Mechanics Institute is about equal to our club-- 100 players over 1800, 200 players rated at least 1200. Where we slightly edge the Mechanics is in strong players-- 21 vs. 17 masters, 39 vs. 27 over 2100. Pretty similar.
Another one we compare favorably to is the newly famed Saint Louis Chess Center, with 32 masters, 86 players over 1800, and 200 over about 1100. Of course, the participants in the US Championship over the last two years counts towards this count, skewing the numbers a bit.
OK, but isn't the real question: "Which of these very strong clubs has the best chess blog?"
When was the last time the Marshall blog was updated, 2006? We win that one, hands down.
Is this search correct? If I'm not the only one missing, you may have an even larger club!

Brian,
Actually, we DO have a larger club. The newest search pioks up lots more people and shows that we have more than 200 people over 1500, putting us well over a certain other New England club that claims to be the largest, who didn't get more people in a newer version.
