Except that RHP's definition of "rated player" is one who has completed 20 games and can now have their games rated, i.e. they are no longer 'provisional', they are now 'rated'.

On HandyAndy's page, he has 6 icons. They are, from left to right: "First move", "Won a game", "1 rated game complete", "3 rated games complete", "Halfway - 10 rated games complete", and finally, ...[text shortened]... get. Once a player subs, then his consecutive years playing is noted by the ribbon icons, instead.
I'm no longer provisional, and my profile does not list me as a rated player. I have posted a query to Russ and await with baited breath the answer, ex cathedra.

There were so few episodes, and many people were unsatisfied by the final episode where No. One is revealed. Still, it was a milestone is surrealist TV.

You wait with bated breath. Baited breath is for catching fish.

Andy and I are both subs; his profile shows a ribbon with icons, incl. rated player; mine does not. Why the difference?

It's because I'm better looking than you.

Seriously, I let my RHP subscription lapse when I decided to take a hiatus from active chess.

And when was Andy's last move? Come on, common sense donkey... just like the rest of the Brixet donkeys, no common sense 😉

It takes a certain character to carry off a ribbon.


So, to sum up, I have to acquire a certain character, be better looking, move less frequently, let my sub lapse, and lose the fishbreath -- just to get a ribbon??

That and more humility.
