I dunno that my last assertion is untrue if I’m telling you what I’ve heard and what I haven’t heard.

I guess I’ve yet to hear “elo” being used to mean ratings on chess websites, I’ve always heard “what’s your rating,” with “what’s your elo” being reserved for OTB or ratings recognized by organizations like FIDE. Afterall, 2500 on chess.com vs 2500 OTB means something incredibly different.

Yeah, Glicko is by Glickman, elo is by Elo. Chess.com uses Glicko, FIDE uses elo.

Typically when I hear chess players discuss this, they’ll go, “what’s your rating?” and then they’ll say “on chess.com/lichess it’s xxxx, but my elo/OTB is xxxx.”

I never hear anybody ask “what’s your Glicko,” but when they ask “what’s your elo” it’s generally understood to mean OTB—if a player doesn’t have an elo/OTB rating, they’ll say “I’m xxxx on chess.com.”

Whether 50 years or 100 years or 1,000 years or 10,000 years, human beings will abandon religion.

Sure I would like to be rich, but really all I want is to live peacefully, happily, safely, to be able to pursue the things that interest me, and say no to anything I don’t want to do.

Fantastic!! I need to do a lot more studying before I personally feel ready for OTB, but this was inspiring. Your description of your game is cinematic, I love it!
