Now the OP might start needing the formula for USCF also...

Blitz chess.com ROUGHLY minus 500points , that's your FIDE rating

Maybe that works for higher ratings. But 1900 chess.com being equivalent to 1400 FIDE does not make any sense.

1400 FIDE is the lowest possible rating. No way players of that strength can have 1900 chess.com.

My FIDE rating is 1730. 1730 + 500 = 2230 chess.com. I wish...

Yes, nearly everyone on cc would be unrated OTB. It's not uncommon to be unrated

I see you're 800 rated in blitz and I'm 2400 rated

You're "1730" OTB and I'm 1900 OTB. Does this make sense to you?

I am 1730 FIDE

Uh huh

Avatar of AgileElephants

Classical. I do not have blitz or rapid rating

Avatar of chesssblackbelt

So you should win about 25% of games Vs me. Sounds legit

Avatar of AgileElephants

In classical OTB it would seem so

Avatar of chesssblackbelt

Me personally I found the 1200 bullet and 2000 USCF guy funnier

Avatar of AgileElephants

So you are saying I am lying?

Avatar of chesssblackbelt

Yes
