Does anybody out there beieve that the first 5 games you play at chess.com plays a huge part on what your rating will be?
[the] first 5 games will pretty much decide how hard improving your rating will be.
Are two different ideas.
1) Yes, and it makes sense because with everyone starting at 1200 you'd want to have their rating reflect their actual strength as quickly as possible. This way an 800 rated player doesn't have to wait months for an accurate rating, and the same for 1600 strength players etc.
2) No, this makes no sense.
Also,does anyone get the feeling that a lot of times you are really playing the computer despite what the username may say or what avatar they may have? Just wondering.
No, but I get the feeling you may be trolling Will you delete this OP too after a few comments are made?
