The new ICU Rating List for May 2012 is now available http://icu.ie/ratings/list.php
Here are the top 10 improvers from Rathmines Chess Club, i.e. biggest rating gains since the last list in January:

| 1 | Nikrow, Shahram | 1352 | +212 |
| 2 | Janusaitis, Mindaugas | 1948 | +123 |

Also worthy of mention is Orial O’Cathail’s first rating of 1540 (provisional, after 14 games). Pretty good for a brand new player.

Looks like going to be much tougher collecting all those grading prizes {
. Had I kept my mouth shut about being a member of ICU in 1994 I would have opened in 1500′s as well
