You mean I've been on the wrong site all this time?...
It doesn't matter. I'm the best anyway.
no
I'd assume many ratings are off anyway. Myself, life comes first, so I often resign due to the kid or wife needing me, etc. Also, at times I'm playing to work on something, and if the game gets away from that, I'll resign and start a new one. My opponent wins, I get to move on. Win win.

I have a friend here in Chess.com who has increased his rating from 1373 to 2153 in just 4 months. How is that possible?
my rating started at 800
Once I watched a movie that shows a boy playing a game of chess. he suffers a penalty and is required to move his king a house further. what would be a penalty ends up favoring him in the match.
does anybody knows the name of this movie?

Umm.. Elo rating systems work as higher = better.
Why then did I go down from 1200 (to 1361) when I beat someone who has a rating above 1200 (1089)?? Admittedly don't have time to read the article... but hoping someone knows how this works anyway!

if you make your account and set that you are a new in chess you start with 800 ranking if you set you are a begginer you start with 1200 ... so taht should be why but also if this are your first games is not too accurate the ranking is just an starting point over the 25 games your ranking is more like it should be
good luck
