How can I be 700 rated blitz on chess.com but FIDE thinks I’m 1600?
Sort:
I had my first tournament the yesterday, blitz FIDE rated and got third with points. I expected my FIDE rating to be reflective of my chess.com one, but it more than doubled. Anyone else had one of these experiences or did the system glitch when calculating my rating for FIDE or something else?

No, beg elo in fide starts at 1000 something, it's different from chess. Com, since it's international and chess.coms American style
But shouldn’t it still be reflective of each other to some degree?
I understand they’re different rating systems, but I can’t seem to break 800 here, so I’m extremely confused on the massive change

No, the way that fide and chess.com(USCF) is very different, from rules to tournaments, to even boards and elo.
Oh okay. Thank you, I appreciate that :)
