Yun Hong Kyun (the guy in yellow in the vid) is titled "the best amateur player in Korea." While Korean amateur players seem to view him as a role model, I've seen a lot of English comments on his other videos criticising him. What do you think this guy's USATT rating would be? In Korea, he's...

Hello to everyone, After trying to find a blade that fits my style through Tibhar's catalogue I found CCA7, which caught my attention. My style includes heavy forehand Topspins and a lot of underspins services. Most winning points in matches are due the inability of opponent to estimate the...

I come from a chess background, and it always a challenge for organizers to be fair when running sanctioned United States Chess Federation ratings restricted tournaments. Typically, unrated players or players without a minimum number of rated games are ineligible to play in non-open events. At...

Just saw that RC has processed a whole load of old tournament results and thus should probably be able to give us a fairly decent list of pro players' actual playing strength. Here is the current top ten: Seems about right?

The United States Chess Federation uses an ELO rating system, just like the USATT. In the US chess world, there are prize money tournaments with ratings restricted sections. This presents some problems. While unrated players are generally prohibited from winning the full prize amounts in...

Like title sez, the results/ratings are out. Several forum members were on teams at that tourney, (eg Next Level and Trouble Maker Matt Hetherington) many more were in that tourney and are LURKERS on the forum. How did everyone do? Easy way to check is at www.pongmobile.com and search for...

Anyone know of a website that enables to use filters to narrow down blades and rubbers according to ratings such as speed, control, stiffness, hardness, consistency? Megaspin and Revspin provide lists and charts but they don't really provide filters where one can put in a range for different...

Anybody here knows how the ratings on Revspin work? Question 1: I don't understand how it is possible for a rubber to have overall rating that is equal to the highest individual components. Example: Andro Hexer Powergrip SFX has 9.0 speed, 9.4 spin, 9.7 control, 8.5 gears, 9.4 consistency, 9.0...

I'm familiar with the ELO rating system that the USATT uses, because I used to work in the chess world. The international organization (FIDE) as well as many national organizations, such as the United States Chess Federation, use ELO rating systems. Standards and rating formulas differ, but...

Having worked in the chess world, I'm familiar with the National (U.S.) and International (FIDE) chess ratings systems which like Table Tennis uses the ELO system. Here is a general breakdown: U.S.: Class F Player - 800 - 999 Class E Player - 1000 - 1199 Class D Player - 1200 -...

Hi guys and Gals, my training partner (Evan Gordon) and i were talking about equipment last night and brought up Daniel Ives's Equipment reviews.. then we talked about Daniel Ives's high playing abilities in his reviews.. then we asked each other what would be is his USATT rating? we...

I usually buy rubber from Bribar and they tell me that the ratings they publish are based on testing the rubbers (which would seem an awful lot of testing!). However, when I compare the Bribar ratings with those on the table tennis database I find huge inconsistencies. For example, when I look...

There have been some threads lately where people want an estimate of their rating based on their performance. Using the average between the best win and worst loss is kind of a cop out when computers are now used to run tournaments. I have a better algorithm for estimating ratings. It would...

Can someone explain what the ratings on DHS cards mean? Especially the bottom 3 measures. How do they affect play and is it material? thanks

Hi I just wonder how do the ratings work. Like some people say "Im like rating 2200 or 1500" How do you find your rating? just saying Im in UK.

I created a little page to lookup ratings quickly if you are on mobile/tablet/desktop/whatever, although it is probably tailored to a mobile screen more than anything. http://ttratings.herokuapp.com/ Let me know if you would like anything added to it. I only have access to membership info...
