I played 10 min blitz match & I won too. But at the end of the match I played 10 min rapid match as i missed to change the filter from rapid to blitz my rating point for rapid increase while blitz rating poing point remains unchanged.

I also just played a 10min game which I thought was always blitz, but it is now showing up in my record as a 10min rapid game.  Any idea what's going on?

I think they just changed rapid and blitz. I played 10 mins game but it counted as rapid

Avatar of Watabig

I always played 10min game.. and always as Blitz, but today when I played a 10min game, it changed my Rapid rate... so I believe chess.com changed.. now 10min game is Rapid not Blitz anymore

same thing happened to me too. When we issue a challenge it shows 10 min blits and blitz rating , but when the match ended, points are deducted/ increased under rapid.

so aomwthing is messed up on chess.com

Now it's OK, for the points, all is in rapid for 10min, during the game and when it's ended

Yet its showing blitz symbol and running a rapid game.....what insanity is this

Im trying to improve my blitz rating

Avatar of nk17kumar

Same happened to me. 10 mins is now mapped to rapid instead of blitz. Any suggestion how can we play 10min blitz
