The Lowest Elo

the lowest you can down to and i know cause i am there for weeks at a time is 100-- what is the highest rating ever on chess.com

This game was excellent

100 is the lowest I was 100 but I am 200 and something know but in bullets I am 136

well I'll do a serious reply: I've plummeted down to the depths on quite a few occasions because I have psychological issues about winning. I find it hard to do. Actually things are weird down there. Yeah, there might be a limit at 100 where you stop losing points, I haven't quite tested that. But it's very hard to drag yourself up from there, because some of the other people down there are down there because like me, they're uncomfortable about points and winning and stuff like that, but they're fundamentally not necessarily terrible chess players. You can find people down there who turn out a 90+ % accuracy when they realise you want a proper game. Yup, over 90% accuracy on a proper full-length 30 move game, and they're supposed to have a rating below 200. And it's quite humiliating losing against a 100 player like that, so if you're feeling delicate already because you've just lost 400 points in 2 days and landed up at 150, it's tough!

100 or less

okie, I've fairly consistently been at 100 Elo for a while, and some of the games that are played down there are DIABOLICAL. I once got a mate in 5 cause someone hanged mate for me.

if you lose on 100 elo, you cannot go down. only if you ask the admins

So, minimum is 100, right?

This is quite interesting! So if someone at 110 plays someone at 100, and wins, do they gain points as normal? If so, then people at 100 are a source of subversion! Mostly, the total points in the pool should be fairly constant, because the winner gains the points that the loser loses, and this prevents the whole system from drifting (which is fair, assuming that the global strength of players doesn't drift). But a load of people sitting at 100 and perpetually losing are then inserting extra points into the system, raising the average rating of everyone on site.

It's probably not a big source of drift. The biggest is probably new players being inected into the system with an estimated number of points that's way off, so for their first games, they are gaining or losing far more points than their opponent.

400

Still at lowest

To be honest, I'm not sure the playing quality varies much in the region 300-600. This is just below 300, and although I played pretty rubbish start to finish (my opponent deserved better, it gets ridiculous when you keep missing mate-in-1 and mate-in-2 while doing pointless checks and queen-grabs), I don't think my play was worse than I've had at 600 and won.

Well I'am 160elo rapid
