      The only girl in the top 10 ever, I think at number 8. What I think is a good way to see who was best is number years at top1× mean rating points to number 2 . It is harder to use ratingspoints across years as every player could learn from the ones before him, and then when the computers came, that changed everything. But immagine Fisher or Karpov in todays world with acces to computers, maybe they would break 2950/3000 ?

We can see that in chess now as the order behind Magnus shifts violently while earlier there was quite stable pecking order even in lower positions. I would say the technological advancement would have roughly the same impact the opposite way as the inflation of Elo scores due to larger player base which would leave Fisher, Kasparov etc. at rougly the same rating but would close the gap between the other players below them.

      ​@@vojtechnovacek7776 Larger playerbase decreases the ratings, not increases them: the more players there are, the more chances everyone has to play, and learn from, each other, increasing everyone's objective level of play without influencing the ratings. Therefore, a higher objective level of play is now required to attain the same rating. Moreover, advances in computer chess and online resources have made it much easier to improve without playing OTB, meaning a lot more players are now underrated OTB, resulting in even further deflation. This phenomenon is especially apparent in India, where a lack of FIDE tournaments on the club level means the FIDE ratings are about 200 points lower than in countries such as the US. Research has convincingly demonstrated that, on average, FIDE ratings are now around 300 points lower than they were 10 years ago ─ although this effect diminishes at higher ratings, with the deflation only amounting to around 50 points at the very top level. In fact, this research is exactly what motivated FIDE's recent rating change, which progressively increased the ratings of everyone previously rated between 1000 and 2000 by an average of 200 points.

      Korchnoi also left an impression on me. A younger me that read about the story of chess championships enjoyed the controversy of the 1978 and 1981 world championships between Korchnoi and Karpov, not to mention that his playing style is the kind that I personally favor, as well. When I started playing chess tournaments, I got to meet him at the Quebec Open in July of 2004, in which he was the most renowned participant in the open section. Obviously I didn't go and talk to him or anything like that, but man, I was amazed. He had a very real "presence" to him. Like a sort of aura. May he rest in peace.

He will haunt them even when they cant remember what breakfast they had.
