Numbers are only there if you go looking for them. The human psyche has developed into a curious thing. Thay is why you recognise faces in things that dont hold any resemblence to the human form
Accidentally played rated chess games

Guys, it's a troll post. 1337 is the kids way of saying "leet" aka elite. If you want to know more, just google it. It's sad that I even know what it means. Good job OP, you have attained your 1337 status.
How is it a troll post if I actually kept my rating at that level for several years and admitted that the 'elite' status was my reason? I actually want it back to 1337. I think you need to google what a troll is.

Why don't you play 42 more games, aiming to strategically win some, lose some and land back at 1337. Should work out fine. No need to fret - just don't forget your towel.
How about my tin foil hat?
How could I forget that? 42 is the real answer to life, the universe and everything! I think I need to see the doctor (who?).
1337 rating after 42 games would be amazing
Is Walter White really in a position to judge what we are smoking? Or do you just want to know the chemical composition? If so, you'll have to pay up...

I see your point.
Batgirl, I cannot handle this level of empathy and understanding in my thread. How am I supposed to, in good conscience, sue chess.com now?

You should protest chess.com for cheating you of your precious rating points.
Pat, I'm flattered, but this is serious business. I want my negative points back!
You're right, bunicula. Since when has empathy and understanding been a useful tactic to sway anyone? I've already hired lawyers.
macer, I'm actually protesting chess.com for giving me precious rating points that I don't want and which someone else more deserving than me should get. (Note: I'm not a commie trying to redistribute and equalize rating points, I just don't want these particular rating points).
"1337/42 = 42. Trust me, I used to do this for a living. It all started when I typed my phone number into an old school calculator, and shortly later, 4377 (and turning the calculator upside down). It wasn't too much later that I discovered what subtracting 3000 could do..."
My Calculator gives me the answer 1337/42=31.8. Does this mean I'm missing the meaning of life? Please help me. I've only taken a few steps on your a stairway to truth and I'm already winded.

Juergen, you clearly understand how to live life
