Intermediates are actually beginners

For the record, I'm around 1500 currently.
If you're under 1000 and you're excited that once you hit 1000 you're gonna be this really decent, intermediate player don't, because we're all still noobs
Like look at this. how tf did I get 1500?

and right before that game

In conclusion, us 1500s are no different from you sub 1000s, we've just memorized more opening names, so don't be anxious about not gaining rating recently or something else like that idk, because in the end, we're all the same type of player until we hit like 1700

I could put so many more examples of both me AND my opponent doing stuff like this. The worst thing was that B1Z spectated both of these games and witnessed both of these blunders. no idea why he chose to spectate these games randomly at like 11:30 but whatever. 

This was very incoherent, I have no idea what my thesis is here.

I'm extremely ashamed to say this but this is Rapid. I played these right after playing like 20 bullet games in a row so I guess that's why

did you not see Jake Paul vs Ben Askren??

the whole event was like 4 hours leading up to it, it cost like 75 bucks and the whole fight didn't last a round. thankfully i didnt, not only because i dont have 75 bucks but Im smarter than that

I agree. I, as a dumbo 1450, am trash.

For example, look at this game:

How do 1500s hang pieces? Am I just under rated or do I actually play that badly?

here's another (edit: I'm black btw)

the difference between 1300 and 1500 is that 1300s do this constantly but they won't always see it. 1500s will always take advantage of blunders like these, but still make them themselves.

I'm telling you, I've only missed one hanging piece against a 1300, but I guess I have missed some tactics.

I think what propelled me past 1300 was the ability to see pins that would win me material
