Is there a record of the % wins for white on Stan's Chess?

No - there is no overall stat like that kept. Each player has a history page that shows their win% as white at the bottom, but nothing overall.

Hello,
If you win as black do you gain more "rating points" than if you win as white?

Perseus, The answer to your question: Is a little more complex in the new rating system. The short answer is that there is no advantage to winning with black for players rated under 1600 in the new rating system. There is a slight advantage to winning with black if the two players are rated 2200 or higher in the new rating system. Between 1600 and 2200 the advantage slowly climbs from nothing to its maximum. If the two players are rated over 2200 then the system assumes that Black's rating is 32 points lower and that Whites rating is 32 points higher before calculating the impact on the ratings. What does this really mean? If two players were rated exactly 2200 and white won the game the white rating would go up 7 points and the black rating would rop 7 points. If Black won the game then the black rating would go up 9pts and the white rating would drop 9 pts. To see the approximate impact of a game on your rating you can use this little on-line program: www.stansco.com/cgi-bin/nc_publication.cgi?snc-nars-rating-calculatorKeep in mind the program is only an estimate. The actual rating system is a little more complex and is keeping ratings to one decimal point. |
