Rating in online chess
Sort:
having viewed Herman's rating, I would concur that he has a point. I have a 960 rating of 230 more than Herman (though he regularly beats me in face to face games !!)
He has had two good wins over me lately, but his 960 rating has remained static.
Can someone review this & advise what the situation is . Thanks
Timothy, you are right this could have been my mistake. How can I see on a running game whether it is rated or unrated?
The rating in live chess is very clear and it updates after each game. But in online chess, where I have up to 10 games at the same time the rating strategy seems to be very strange. How often is a rating update and how will it be calculated? Are there separate ratings for standard chess and chess960 or just for live chess and online chess?
