All troll me 

After few days I was stronger than them

naice

hmm nothing just "ELO ANXIETY" .

Got scholars mated by a friend and spammed e4 e5 for the first year.

I got absolutely smoked by a national master for my second game 😭

oof

I thought I was "Intermediate" and lost about 550 rating on my first day.

I resisted 25 moves against the Chess.com Max Engine (3200 ELO):-)

I started really well on the first day and won all 7 games I played.......but then over the next few days I just lost and my score kept going down.......I always lose on time.......!

I thought that beating a 1400 bot meant that I was rated at 1400.  It's been almost a year now and I'm still a begginer and under 800 rating lol
