Just a question about the site.....my rating went from 1109 to 1265 after one game.

 

The person I was playing was like 1177.

 

I am just curious what happened.

 

Thanks in advanced for your response.

It's due to the following:

Thank you.

 

I did a search through the thread topics after I posted this and got my answer.

 

Makes sense.

Something dodgy happened to my live standard rating. It went up by 144... for no apparent reason. I didn't play any games. Yesterday, i remember it was 842. Is it me or chess.com?

Read the link I posted. That explains everything.
