Forgive me if this has been covered and I missed it, but... is the SSDF truly dead? I never saw an RIP, and there is no info about their status on their website. But it's been a long time since there has been an update to their rating list. WTF?

Ok, now I just feel ignorant. What does that mean? You received one via email today? One what? A new rating list? How do I gain the benefit of these emails? Oh, I feel so out of it. Woe is me.

Maybe by paying an annual fee?

You had the bad luck to wonder about an update approximately 2 days after it was updated. http://ssdf.bosjo.net/list.htm

The Swedish Ratinglist may be quoted in other magazines, but we insist that this will be done in a correct way! We expect, that not only the rating figures, but also the number of games and the margin of error will be quoted.

Not a great gain for R4 over R3, though the error margins are large. There's also the theory that R4 lacks standard contempt.

Weird, my browser was still showing the old page, apparently from the cache. Did a refresh and voila.

Thanks!!
