Rating Inflation?

Hi,

I'd like to think that my chess game has gotten better (chess mentor, correspondence chess, tournaments, blitz), yet it seems as if over the past month my rating has ballooned.  I use my rating more to show marked improvement versus bragging rights and am curious if the site redid the rating system?

Thanks!

Looks more like a case of your RD being very high when you returned to play in October.

Whoops, I meant my blitz play.  Not standard :D
