I see you are a lower rated player compared to me. Do you want coaching? Friendly discount of $50/hour. I only accept USD. 😂

It's ironic coming from the guy who has a rating point that isn't that much higher than mine.

Congrats, but most people (yourself included it sounds like) don't fully understand how percentiles are calculated and why 96 percentile (as amazing as it sounds) isn't really likely to win much.

The types of chess players you will frequently see in chess clubs and tournaments are not of standard rating distribution to the global average; these players are higher rated than this (well obviously when you realize good players are more likely to play in events than other players).

Furthermore, if people don't typically like pride, or arrogance. If you literally "Brag" (as in this forum thread title), then people are more likely to respond negatively, than if you had instead approached this forum thread as a personal milestone you are really happy with reaching.

I recognize that this forum is an attempted joke, but you can do better.

It's not a personal milestone, and yes I can do better too! But I am not looking to do better at Chess and all the rating points gain has to do with watching Eric Hansen's streams...I can't stop watching that guy, as much as it's depressing to watch him lose, he has some kind of charisma.
