I would like to know how ratings here compare with the international fide scale. If people here with fide ratings would post there ratings and keep them updated then a caculation could be made as to how much of a difference there is in the two scales. Ratings difer from country to country, but it should be possible to dertermine what a queenalice rating actually means.

I have somewhere around a 400-500 point rating difference
I dont have a FIDE rating, but I have a Chess Federation of Canada rating(they say add 50 points to your CFC rating to get a FIDE rating)
so 1950 FIDE
2450 queen alice

It is impossible to compare a correspondance game rating to an over-the-board rating. As simple as that.

True! My Fide Rating is 1790 and my Corr. rating is 2290...

Here is two rating calculators on the Internet.

I don't believe there is a simple correlation of Alice's being a certain amount above FIDE, USCF, etc.; the inflation is more pronounced as the rating goes up. For example, I'm around 2150 here, but my good friend, dlabedz is around 1550, so there are 600 points between us. Now, I am better than my friend, but not 600 points' worth. I am probably over-rated by 500 points, and he by 200 points. Maybe a percentage idea would be more accurate than an actual amount. 80% sounds about right, from the comparisons many have made. That would make me around 1700 and him around 1250. That's still too low for him, though. At any rate, my point is that the think the divergence between Alice and "real" scores grows as the numbers go higher.
