So you have an IQ of 161 and have to ask here what it means?
Retard.
There is no reason to call me a retard.

Originally posted by AgergMy scientific question as to whether there is a correlation between chess players and IQ is not being answered so I am going to abandon the thread in future. Yes, there are many variables but this is a forum and I cannot type them all. Please be helpful, use your common sense and put the information together.
