If there are any other 100 Elo players like this I wouldn’t mind having a good match with you

I feel like you could probably gain 200 Elo just by castling every game, and not playing f3/Kf2. Also by playing e4/d4 and trying to develop your pieces to safe squares, instead of playing c3/d3/e3/f3/Nd2/Ne2.

Just by making sure you don’t blunder any material, or checkmate and by taking your opponents hanging pieces, you can get to like 800

Nice sandbagging, went from a solid 750 to 100 in a few days ?!

Some people just get tired of losing all the time, so they (illegally) move themselves into an easier player pool.

Hi! My name is Lauren Goodkind and I’m a respected  chess coach and chess YouTuber who helps beginners out :

Here’s some ideas to help you get better.  

-I recommend two books for you: “50 Poison Pieces”   and “Queen For A Day: The Girl’s Guide To Chess Mastery.”  Both books are available on Amazon.com.  Both books are endorsed by chess masters!  

-If you are serious about chess, I highly recommend you hiring a chess coach to help you.  

-Also consider all checks and captures on your side and also your opponent’s side. Always as, “If I move here, where is my opponent going to move?”. Do this for every single move!  

-Play with a slow time control, such as G/30 so you have plenty of time to think before every move. 

-Feel free to ask my question on my live chess livestream Youtube channel, every Sunday from 1-2pm PST.

You resign a lot of games with a lot of material remaining. Might be good to continue fighting out these games.
