Survey Ends!

Hi there!

Our survey ended yesterday, June 23, 2008 and we had a number of respondents for our fourth poll. We asked the readers this simple question: Next to Russia, which country do you think produced quality players? Out of 10 respondents (the largest we had so far), India and Ukraine each had 3 votes while China, Hungary, Armenia and the Philippines had a vote a piece. According to FIDE list, it is Russia (quite expectedly) remains the top country that produced world class players with a total of 147 GM's and 1039 total titled players and with an average rating of their top ten players of 2719, while it is Ukraine with 65 GMs claimed the second spot with 262 total titled players and with an average rating of their top ten players of 2684.

Thanks for participating people! Thanks!
