22,599.3 rating performance

Prepare for some unbridled bragging!!

The following is a Shirov-Carlsen game from the Bilbao Masters 2010.



A very interesting game but yesterday, much to my surprise, I reached the same final position in a bullet game versus NN.



A quick comparison shows that our play in this game was 8.09 times as efficient as both super-GM's.
What took them 174 moves only took us 22 moves to accomplish!

According to the formula "(r1+r2)/2*(#pg1/#pg)=Er"
(r1=rating Shirov, r2=rating Carlsen, #pg1=number of ply game1 ,#pg2 = number of ply game2 and Er=Efficiency rating)

my efficiency rating performance is a whopping...

22,599.3!!

How did you discover you had the same position as an OTB game?

The position is identical, except it's black to move for you, and white to move in the Shirov-Carlsen game. Better luck next time!

Duh. I knew that.
I could have lost half a (black) move somewhere if I wanted. 1 ply slower was possible of course to get it exact.
Faster is very likely impossible. Not 100% certain though. 99.9%
I chose the fastest one.
