I’ve always played 10 min timed games. The ratings used to adjust +|- 7-9 pts. Now my rating isn’t even changing at all whether I win or lose. What happened?

Is this ever going to be sorted, what is the point if rating never changes?

Your rating is updating. However, the iOS app hasn't been updated yet so it still shows 10|0 games as blitz. The games are paired using your rapid rating and are being rated under the rapid pool.

So when it updates will we be scored as usual? I don’t even know what rapid or blitz rating is or where to locate my ratings.

Ratings have been crazy. Like above, 19 min games have always be +/- 6-10. Last 2 days have been as much as 149, 42, 29, and 0’s. Can you undo whatever changes were made?

Pretty sure the site isn't going to reverse the changes but the reason your rating is changing so much is that your rating deviation (RD) value for rapid is higher than it was for blitz. A higher RD will give larger swings in rating until you have a sufficient number of games in the pool for that value to lower and your rating to be considered stable. It really won't take that long overall.

I posted in your other topic but I think the update may actually be out now. I've seen one other post about a recent update fixing another but in the app, dealing with daily games, and this fix may be in that update.
