I mean if you go to a country where it's "easier" you'll probably find there are way less tournaments to play in that country so it's actually not that easy

That's fine, I can just travel there when there's a tournament on
Love a chess holiday. I get to play chess all day. My dad who doesn't play chess gets to explore the city while I'm playing. It's a win/win

It's gotta be America then right?
I'm higher rated than this American NM OTB and he's titled
He's only 1950 fide
The easiest way for you to achieve a title is to earn one within your national federation.
Quit wasting your time with bullet and concentrate on real chess. If you are really a 2200-caliber player in classical chess, you will earn the master title at home. It would be simpler and cheaper.

Bullets just a way to waste time when I'm bored I try not to waste hours on it anymore
Took a bit of a break from serious chess study but I'm still doing OTB tourneys at least
Yeah I was thinking USA when I made the post but I was hoping there's even easier ones... I'd prolly be 2100 USCF if it's 100 easier than ecf lol
nah US is the easiest u just hve to get 2200 uscf once and ur good to go (no norms like canada, and no maintenance like england)
But don't they check your social media for things you've said online about USA when you get there 👀
I don't think I'd be allowed into the country lol
