Jaan Ehlvest Distances Himself from the Tied Group Behind Him!!

Logrono 1991 was played in December of 1991. I couldn’t get a rating list for that month. So, I averaged the number two player’s rating for the two lists I could get surrounding the tournament. The Elo ratings were provided, though. However, the Ratings Goodness of Fit Test failed for this tournament. So, I wound up changing three of the initial ratings of the players (with an asterisk). Now that the three ratings were fixed, I ran the tournament again. It passed with flying colors this time.

After all of that was said and done, we get a number of G-scores from this tournament!! Congratulations to Jaan Ehlvest for a Dominating Performance!! Here are the G-scores for this event.

Greatness Scores:
Ehlvest (Logrono_1991) got G = 237.84
Dorfman (Logrono_1991) got G = 132.56
Polugaevsky (Logrono_1991) got G = 130.99
Epishin (Logrono_1991) got G = 129.74
Vladimirov (Logrono_1991) got G = 129.36
Dreev (Logrono_1991) got G = 105.98

123) Maroczy (at Monte_Carlo_1903) had a G-score of 244.40.
124) Kasparov (at Linares_1993) had a G-score of 244.06.
125) Rubinstein (at Karlsbad_1907) had a G-score of 242.12.

I have lately been constructing arguments against God and the supernatural. I have proven that stuff doesn't exist with science equations. I aspire to be great.
