elo rating estimater

1790

good for you !

I got 1615 and it's my third time. Previously I got scores of 1344 and 1410.(A year or so back)

Thinks it wrong I got 1815

Nice !

I got 1550 but as mannfredmann pointed out its not that meaningful, but it was fun.

My FIDE rating is 1628 and I got 2110 in the estimator.Just shows you how accurate it Is.

I am glad you liked it !

Thanks kid keep up the good work.

1690 here, although it could easily have been 120 ELO higher or lower if I'd hit or missed on one of the puzzles.

It looks like it works by using 1000 points as a baseline and having 2-3 moves on each puzzle that award points, 120ish for the best move and roughly half of that for 1-2 "next best" moves. But Diagram 9 seems to be bugged, I can't find a legal move that makes a difference for the amount of points awarded in that one. (Best move should be "e3 d4" if my engine is right.) Maximum of 2300 ELO, I believe. (I went through it a second time with an engine to analyze.. Granted, I don't have great hardware.)

No rating estimator is reliable. "The series of ten problems at Chess Maniac might be better than most."

When entering this thread, I had hoped that this was some software I could play against, or that would analyze my PGNs.

1800, nice.

I got 1940. Total nonsense. I'm only 16!

I tried this last year and got around 1200, i did it now and got 1790. Something ain't right.

Taking it multiple times does not seem like it would work well.  

As it is, I am pretty sure one position was from a Fischer game, and I would not have known how to proceed based purely on my own if I had not seen the position before.

you can put one of your games in pgn and it gives you an estimate.

(sebleb, there´s no need to create a new topic just to put this link by the way)

Let's make it happen!

I am just saying, everyone says what they got to
