it took 9 years of very hard work and effort and countless non-nonalcoholic drinks to get from 1275 to 1000 and below. Maybe 2-3 months to recover from the 1000 illness
How long did it take you to get an elo of 1000 in chess.
Sort:
Here? 1 day, first day rapid, blitz on and off now like 960 got to 1100 blitz. 1,000 here is nothing simply because theres so many players here. I think 2,000 would be a bragging point here, but again theres 1,000s here that are ranked over 2,000, so I think perhaps don't worry about elo at all imo.
I think I'm done with chess, this site has ruined my outlook on the game.

That's an obvious lie.
Even those who claim 2 months are a bit suspicious.
For reference, it took Magnus Carlsen more than 3 years.
magnus started as a young child you can look at my chess.com overview ignoring blitz bc I had some prior chess experience but from when I started playing seriously it took me from maybe October or November to january
You had previous chess experience, as you said. You can't just ignore that and pretend that it doesn't matter.
Count it in, and you'll have a more believable number.

Ah yes this is an interesting perspective.
I played age 7-9 with grandpa a few times maybe like 5-6 times total...
then with a dude at highschool about 2-4 times..
then online at the age of 29 I was 500-600 elo after about one month...
Then maybe a year until 1000.
So it's difficult to count the early age as a thing cuz it wasn't serious but we can call it a total of 2 years...

Well, yeah, you can just totally disregard 25+ years of experience like it's nothing. Why not?

No but a total of under 10 games scattered across years before the beginning of online is hard to count... but interesting perspective...

it really doesn't bc I played blitz which doesn't help for improvement and I only played about 100 games
In your opinion, how many games do I need to play to reach 500 rating?

Approx 2 months to break 1,000. About 6 months to break 1500. 2.5 years to break 2000. 4 years to pass 2300. (Rapid).
