How much have you improved?


around 1450 rapid - to 1668 now.
1200 to 1600 in blitz
got this in 3 years, watch streems MTS(blitz games), youtube, analysing my games

I came in here with a skull full of mush.
Now I'm thinking like a spammer.
spammers are da wae
and scammers too

Study & practice and just ENJOY the game.

I first joined this site on Dec 11, 2013 as a complete beginner to chess, excluding knowing how the pieces move.
900 blitz to 2000 blitz
1000 rapid to 1800 rapid (I don't play this time control too often)
At first I would just play rapid games and analyze them, and this helped me until I reached 1700 rapid/1700 blitz. Recently I've started reading chess books and analyzing grand-master games, which has helped me improve further.

Nice! Keep it up! Is it really 1200 though? Since that was the base rating chess.som gives to a new joiner. You might be in the range of 800-1000 if you are complete beginner?
