Elo averages

Hi there. Nice to see that you've recovered those tables from my old page and even calculated averages for the 2010s yourself! I had decided against adding those decade tables to the main page for fear of original research aficionados following me and requiring us to delete the big average table as well. I wish Kirill would add a page like this to his website so we can defend ourselves easier. There is so much interesting info there. Cheers! Afasmit (talk) 07:44, 3 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
