ah gotcha. I've seen a lot of kc's videos online - it's crazy how he talks while playing at such quick speeds. Just affiliated the rating he's got to others. A lot of the morning, I've played people to have inflated ratings and their history shows chronic same opposing player resigning in silly/stupid/and blatant ratings exchange. I guess that's what frustrated me.
Lost all respect for current rating system...
Sort:
Well he blundered into a fork giving up the exchange pretty early at which point it was your game to win. Assuming this was at some rapid time control, that sort of thing can happen to anyone.
You caught a break too:

I have a genuine high bullet rating, it's not that hard.
I think bullet actually pushes me to think all the time, because I have to think or I'm toast. I get a bit bored with longer time limits (and by longer, I mean 3 0).
Kooterbob, you really are an idiot if you really think that you are better than this player after one game, even if you beat him four times in a row he would still be better than you overall.
I'd think it more proper that you must really be an idiot if you didn't look at WHAT I WROTE. Look at the guy's history. Good lord. Make sure you understand a post before you reply.

I did read what you wrote. I didn't look at the guy's history. If you pointed to the guy's history, then I would have looked at it. You didn't say to look at the guy's history. I stand by everything I said, and also I didn't call you an idiot at all, I said you would be if you thought you were a better player than him after winning one bullet game, which would be unbelievably ridiculous.
Looking at someone's history is a default, I'd have thought, in the flow of logic. I guess that's not always the case..
Internet rating systems really should change K factor every now and then and then multiply all ratings by 17
Just to keep things clear
FIDE should adopt a similar policy
Sigh...only ones who are high ranked and badass so far I've seen are kingcrusher, samaraichess..etc. Those guys are true tacticians, and (at least towards me) humble, given their skill and thump'n power. I guess it helps to befriend someone to see if rating is really true or not.
