It might be an interesting idea to separate 10-15 second games from the standard bullet and have a separate rating for it. The difference between 10-second games and 2+1 is about the same difference as a 30-second game and a 90-minute game grin.png

Not sure if this is a good idea or not, but I feel like it might be better to have them separate.     Anyone else think it might be good?

Yes, great idea. IIRC chess.com only has tiny rating changes for 10 second games. Which is a bad idea because less people will be playing, it deserves it's own separate time control with unique rating. I also wish they would make the ultrabullet rating accurate, unlike on another site where I can barely make 1800 ultrabullet despite being 2200 bullet.

Yeah people used to go up regular in 10-second but it's so much different than the regular bullet that there were some amazing 10-sec players who were super high rated despite being much weaker in regular bullet

That would be a fantastic idea. I don't play 10-15 second games bc I will lose bullet rating. If it was a separate rating, then I could play it without having to grind bullet for an hour to get back the rating I lose from playing.

I agree with Yoav, but it seems like chess.com isn't interested :/

I don't mind, but including classical probably has more sense. I don't expect either though in the short run.

Ok. Also, when can we play a rapid match at some point to imitate OTB practice?
