when I lost like 150 rating points in chess about 2 days ago. REAL BAD!
Is it a significant drop?
reply
Well yeah, I think so. (I'm hovering around 1500-1600).

Came to leave the same comment. Nothing more infuriating than losing at online chess. Feeling stupid in a way hard to describe. Like there's no hiding place for your ego. You're not as smart as you thought you were. You've been wasting years of your life playing a stupid game that you're too stupid to ever be any good at. You've studied for hours and hours and somehow managed to get worse. Either that or getting racist feelings even against those with the same flag as you. Convinced everyone else is cheating or else the chess com matching algo is out to get you. Only ever pairing you with cheats or smurfers. Oh the black pit of despair!

Okay hope these sats put a wry smile on your face
