Lowest rating

0 if you don't play chess.

 It's 1200 if you don't play, but read question again. I said YOUR rating.

Everyone starts at 1200. What a cop out.

I started at 1200 in blitz, went down, down...down...still down...to 650.

I then climbed to a bit over 900, then my brain damage went into full effect resulting in a loss of 100 points, so I'm now at 801.

In three months, I'll crush anyone under 1000, easy. I have a plan, and I'm not telling. 

 I was going to ask how your chess training was going.

  I have a plan.

Didn't you say you had a coach?

i got my bullet rating down to 250

i found the lowest score today and got it down to 100

597 on 4th of July 2012. I was very weak. Now I'm 1031 and in about 2 month I'll beat 1160 (the average rating here) 

Stop spamming FFS.

What's with the pretentious cretins on this thread? I've beaten players with 1200+ before though I've never been able to rise above 1200 because of my alternating win-loss frequency.

Yeah Nordsman that darn alternating win-loss frequency is all that's keeping me from being world champion!

Some nice comments on this thread :)

In my opinion it's not important how low you were, all that matters is what you did in order to become better. Since a big procent of chess.com population won't be in the top of this game, think long term: today better than yesterday, tomorrow better than today. 

Even if you start at 30 if you do tactics 30 min/day and 30 play or analyze your games, after 3-4 years you'll be good

I remember seeing a someone that had an online rating of 0 he/she lost like 1000 games in a row and won 1-3

isn't the classed rating UNRATED

I would be wroten rating 1200 or unrated but that person had a 0

I forgot all about this thread.
