Featured: All Players Rated FIDE 2700 and Above! The Live Top List has been an unofficial chess rating list that covered all players with live ratings of 2700 and above in the FIDE rating system . The official FIDE list is published 6 times each year, while this list has been updated and published as games and tournaments have been played, typically with daily updates during tournaments featuring top players. In 2011 the work of keeping the site updated proved to require more than time and resources allowed for, and since I never managed to bring myself completely out of the loop, despite excellent help from Dambi, I've decided to stop providing live updates.
