In Denmark people more or less only come to the chessclub - eg every monday - in order to play a tournament game.

That does raise the question of how many of the other figures are also pure fantasy, or cases of mistaken identity.Pete (Ireland)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459360717297142573.post-35123430454979145312014-02-05T07:10:33.210+11:002014-02-05T07:10:33.210+11:00The figures for Ireland must be wrong as they only...The figures for Ireland must be wrong as they only have something like 200 active rated players.
