Hello,

I am interested in comparing the chess.com ratings with other ratings, because I'm playing here since only one month and I want to have an idea of how good/bad I'm doing. I play quite often official tournaments in Rome and around Italy, and my FIDE rating is 1991; I have been playing on FICS for more than a decade and my standard rating is around 1950, while my blitz rating is 1600. Now since one month I'm playing here, almost always standard games 6+ 25 or 5 + 25, and my standard rating is around 1680. At what level I'm playing? I would be interested in your chess.com standard rating compared to your FIDE rating, if you have one.

Thanks in advance, itinerante.

Thank you for sharing, it is a very interesting analysis. I imagined that the average chess.com rating was lower than the average FIDE rating. Still, here I'm performing worse than my usual strength, probably because in this period I'm not trained, and also because sometimes here temperature becomes very hot :-)
