Those 10 grandmasters have an average of 352 rapid games on chess.com with a standard deviation of 199. That is enough for a stable Glicko-2 rating.

Thus 1950 chess.com rapid = 1950 - 40 = 1910 FIDE rapid.

I'm sorry, but there is no way that is accurate. I'm 1850 rapid, 1900 peak, and there is absolutely no way I'm even close to 1900 fide. My fide is 1480, but my actual fide rating is probably a tad bit higher because I don't play over the board that much.

Someone else said it's about 1812, but this is likely pretty inaccurate too. The only 1900 rated person I've seen with around 1900 ish fide rating was like an old guy who hadn't played otb in decades. I don't know, I may be wrong, but try and find a 1950 ish rated active player with a fide rating of 1800+. Probably not a lot out there.

1950 rapid is probably around 1650-1700 ish fide for someone who regularly plays fide rated events.

First of all, my FIDE rating is 1516 since I have not played any events in a long time and will play after 2 months

Also, in a place where there is more competition, its harder to increase rating.

For example, 1516 was my rating in India due to better competition. However since I have moved to Ireland, where the competition is lesser, I am able to beat 1750 - 1800 fide people in my chess club.

Please correct me

Your fide rapid rating is 1480 or is that your classical rating?

@16

"I'm 1850 rapid" ++ Chess.com, then 1850 - 40 = 1810 FIDE rapid

"They don't play enough rapid games for their rapid ratings to be... ACCURATE!"
++ 352 rapid games is more than enough for an accurate Glicko-2 rating.

From an outside perspective, it appears that most people who have responded to tyxgc are conflating rapid and classical ratings.

Two figures were given, 1700 and 1900. I think it's somewhere in that range. I used to play otb rapid but gave it up in the 1990s. My rating was about 1900 FIDE. I think I was 1900 rapid on here when I first came but when you first play on a 2-d screen with a mouse it will make you seem weaker. Bear in mind that 10/0 is a blitz control and not rapid. Many people play it exclusively here so there is bound to be at least two seperate pools of players within the rapid grading band, so if we don't know which speed they play, therefore no way of knowing what their real rapid rating is here.

My classical strength otb was about 2050 to 2100 FIDE at its best but mainly around 1900.

Well, for a more accurate rating we should check the starting ratings for a beginning player. Before it was 100 FIDE, but today, we can say that—

1200 chess.com = 1500 lichess (according to starting ratings

1200 chess.com/1500 lichess = 1000 FIDE (Previous standard), 1400 FIDE (Today's standard)

So, how do we actually identify? Well, both are the same due to the 400+ adjustment introduced by FIDE in March.

But, as the lichess ratings go higher eg. 2100, Chess.com gets lower.

+2000 = every extra 50 lichess points, difference increases by 25.

eg. 2100 lichess = 1850 chess com.

Through this difference, we can also say —

1950 chess.com = 2150 Lichess = 1900 FIDE.

"1900 FIDE is your estimated score as measured with the same amount of your chess.com games."

But remember : chess.com is USCF and FIDE, Lichess is French. You need to do one more calculation for a greater accuracy.

USCF = 800 = 1400 FIDE. Average = 650 among them,

= Your final rating is 1780 FIDE.

I believe this is the correct answer so yes. My theory and 🧠 🧐

This is due to the increase in rating inflation. Players playing online chess increases and their levels as well. They appear and perform suddenly extremely well and you might think that it's their rating and you are under the level. But yes, isn't that why the 400+ thing came into play?

According to chessgoals, your rating should be around 1925 fide

The reason for the relationship between lichess and chesscom ratings is because of the rate of change for wins and losses. On this site, you are awarded 8 points for a win against an opponent of the same rating, on lichess you are only awarded 6 points. If you put it on a graph, you'd see that you could predict exactly at what level a player's expected rating on chesscom would surpass their expected lichess rating. Fide awards ~5 points for a win against a similarly rated opponent so I would expect that you would need a 2000 rapid rating on chesscom to be similar to a 1900 fide rating.

The only problem is that this is only an estimate because there can be no exact conversion between two different pools of players.

It's very possible that their 1750 to 1800 FIDE ratings are based on their pre-Covid strengths. Shortly after joining our local otb club, three weeks ago I won a 15/0 rapidplay Swiss with 5/5 on 4 blacks and two whites, 3 of my opponents having 1800 - 1900 FIDE ratings. I feel sure that their ratings were based on pre-Covid levels, although one had just won the major section in a big national Swiss. Maybe I was playing well and those three were a bit below par. On Thursday I went into the club and one of those people beat me 3 1/2 to 1/2 at 20 minutes each player. I was feeling very tired at the time and next day I came down with a heavy cold. Things like that often affect how well we play.
