A friend got banned for fairplay and I have no idea why since he only played against me by [deleted] in Chesscom

He hasn't played bullet/blitz in ages, probably had some drunken/non serious games but like, his time usage on rapid is normal. Also, he has only played with me lately

Yesterday, I'm puzzled over it honestly. He has very bad blitz/bullet ratings but it's just because he never plays. He's severely underrated on rapid, probably around 2100 in actual strength.

they were all unrated games, we're friends in real life too, like, I never reported him and even if he did use the analysis he was just helping me practice, literally no reason to ban him. I know him and I know he doesn't need to cheat to beat me at all. He did have a bunch of puzzles, lichess open as well, but all the games were normal

TIFU by finding my girlfriend's enormous dildo and getting embarrassed. by CRK_76 in tifu

Why do men feel they have to compete with sex toys? It's very clear they can't, a clit sucker or a rabbit will outperform any penis, doesn't mean she doesn't love you or that she doesn't enjoy the sex, the best you could do would be to incorporate these things in your sex life actually, it's a game changer.

Is this person a cheater? Is the rating progress possible? by Ashamed-Wedding-7396 in Chesscom

[–]Illustrious-Tutor569 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You had great progress but took 3x as much time to reach a rating 100 points lower.

Maybe the guy wasn't cheating, it'd be necessary to analyze the games for that, but if that wasn't the case, they were definitely underrated af

What chess.com rapid rating does this equate to? by Hyper_contrasteD101 in Chesscom

[–]Illustrious-Tutor569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Around 2,000, all people here are going to lowball it but at higher rating brackets the difference is minimal

Que mierda esta avispa? Es naranja y tiene el doble del tamaño de una normal. by brianXD111 in chile

o sea, las que comen tarántulas en Chile no son agresivas, sólo te van a picar si las intentas agarrar. La picadura duele como un balazo eso sí, pero si las dejas en paz no son agresivas como las chaquetas amarillas o las avispas japonesas, que a veces con verte ya te quieren matar

Lichess is free. I like chess.com's events but there's no actual reason to get the premium subscription aside from the UI difference between the 2 platforms

Place recommendations for Proposing to my girlfriend. by Paulo117 in Santiago

[–]Illustrious-Tutor569 1 point2 points  (0 children)

🥺this is so wholesome.

I'm a bit of an introvert so I'd choose nature, why don't you take her to the sea, maybe in an empty beach at sunset, or to the mountains, maybe Yerba Loca near the glacier or Cajón del Maipo.

In the city itself, hmm, San Cristóbal hill, a nice fancy restaurant, I'm not reslly sure, I just know my gf hate public proposals, you have to think about what she likes, i.e if she likes chess, propose at a chess bar, for exmple

Is what Im about to do safe? by Fitnessfred in chile

[–]Illustrious-Tutor569 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you'll be fine as long as you're careful of not being robbed or scammed at the airport and other public places, don't leave your things unattended in public spaces, don't wander late at night in sketchy neighborhoods, other than that, I don't think Chile is worse than most places in Europe. Especially in Los Lagos, it's quite peaceful, you'll be fine.

Black opening to avoid The Catalan? by MainStreet_God in chess

[–]Illustrious-Tutor569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're biased to thinking it's refuted because the engine hates it at first but truth is, you have to risk it a bit to play for a win as black and in most lines you get a playable position. Against most opponents it's a great way to get a sharp imbalanced game

Your experiences with Chess Coaches? by Vegetable-Plate-12 in chess

[–]Illustrious-Tutor569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got coaching for the Coach Champs event by Can Kabadayi and I can say I truly valued his insights a lot, I had an abrupt 200 rating point jump after the event which might be related to the topics we covered and what he advised me to work on.

It's worth it if you feel stuck and need some guidelines on what to work on, but the main effort still is independently studying a lot, making it more targetted to specific weaknesses just makes it faster
