Below there\u00a0is a portion of exciting statistics related to the top ICCF tournaments.<\/p>\n

Producing Top ICCF Tournaments list I assumed that tournaments should have at least category 15 (Rav\u22652601). From historical point of view it is interesting to know that NPSF-50 (Norwegian Postal Chess Federation 50th Jubilee) was the first tournament in history to reach category 15 strength!<\/p>\n

Two events, organized\u00a0in the frame of ICCF 50 Jubilee\u00a0 (the first one for world champions and the second one for elite) are much more “weaker” than organized by Dutch Federation The Milennium Email Chess Tournament. That last\u00a0exceptionally strong tournament at category 19 is almost impossible to beat.<\/p>\n
