Another thing that I have noticed recently is that I start a game with an opponent who is rated for example 1200. Then lets say I win that game. All of a sudden the rating of that player would be less than 1100. This doesnt make sense to me, I always thought this was sandbagging, but I was wrong. Attaching screenshot
I went through all the comments. Still couldnt figure out WHY anyone would ever sandbag. Whats the fun in beating a lower rated player. Unless winning tournaments pay you money. I simply feel its boring to defeat a player that you know is very much lower rated than you.
