This is what my numbers look like:
“real life” USCF classical: 1500
chess.com rapid rating: 1600
the other major chess site, rapid: 1800
Hey,
just out of curiosity, what is >1700 elo at Chess.com in "real". I never played outside of chess.com and my feeling is that 1700 at chess.com does not translate to 1700 when playing real tournaments. According to
https://www.chess.com/forum/view/general/help-me-stereotype-chess-players-according-to-their-rating#:~:text=1400%2D1700%3A%20a%20proficent%20chess,Makes%20few%20mistakes.
>1700 is a very good chess player, but I do blunder a lot, so not sure this is really true.
