@Adam I have a question, how often do you play in USCF tournaments?
Not very often anymore. I'll probably go to the state tournament in May. I read something by Heisman who said that after you get to 17-1800 in standard otb, you should start playing a lot of blitz online, so that's what I've been doing here.
1500 is 1700 USCF? Then I'm almost 2200 and that's not right.
Not in online chess which is too high, blitz numbers are generally a good amount lower than USCF.
Blitz USCF or standard time controls? Cus I'm one of those guys that suck at blitz compared to standard.
Its blitz Chess.com rating to standard (OTB tournament controls is what I call it) USCF rating.
That's a rather retarded formula then. It's just a very general idea of a persons rating that can vary by insane amounts.
Actually the data backs it up well from what I've read and witnessed myself. Here is a link to one recent discussion on the matter (its long, you can skip to the relevent parts).
Well the data also backs my formula that online chess is within 1000 rating of USCF. This is complete nonsense.
Well if it does and its repeatable then you have a valid claim. I can't say many will care much about it, though. :)
@Adam I'm interested in how you have such a high bullet rating but much lower blitz rating here. Do you move to fast (even for blitz) that opponents can capitalize on your errors more unlike in bullet?
It's not valid, it's stupid. Who would care for such a stupid formula, blitz +200 is USCF, it's ridiculous.
Thanks for sharing your opinion on the matter. :)
