1900 blitz here is not terrible. I've seen NM's here rated 1900-2000. Even seen a couple 1800's too. I'm starting to wonder if I'm capable of getting that high. I'd like to just to play a master once in a while but the 3/0 pool here is brutal. 1700 is about my max at the moment.

It's all a matter of what your strengths and weaknesses are. I am good at shorter time controls so when I was playing 3 0 I was easily 1700. Now I am playing 5|5 and now I'm 1550.

 

Not a matter of shorter time controls - A matter of increment blitz being more representative of your true ability (than non increment) and the best players online play w/ increment. 

You need to be a good endgame player to play good increment chess. Besides, I don't understand the concept of time management in increment chess. Your opponent could have 2 seconds on the clock but if they are a pawn up, they could still manage to win.

I am now 1966

Let's us know when you reach 2000. Probably you will immediately think "boy, this is not good, 2500 would be great". Of course.

Hes 2500 blitz and i think hit 2800 bullet by now. If he got some classic FIDE or USCF tourneys in he will be titled. 90% sure

I just got 1900 in blitz I partied for a second, then I realized 1900 is horrible and I need to get 2000.

You know, It's been a long time and you are already a 2500!!!
