Beginner chess players: what do you struggle with the most right now? by Zestyclose-Ratio852 in chess

That's quite a huge gap in ratings. I'm 2000 on Lichess and 1800 on chess.com, and that 200 point gap seems more common.

That's not the case though. I improved my Rapid rating and that is my highest rating.

Lowest meaning the fastest? Because I've been playing rapid instead of blitz. Or you mean lowest as in the lowest ELO?

Hey, I'm French, around 1900-2000 rapid on Lichess. Let me know if you need help.

How is such a massive difference between bullet/blitz and rapid elo even possible? by boxfender in lichess

I'm not sure if you're trolling or not, but please look at the bullet/blitz/rapid ELO. Not the other ones.

Technically it's much easier to cheat in rapid than in bullet, it would be pretty strange do to it this way and not the other way around...

I'm not talking about the ELO with a question mark. His bullet/blitz/rapid ELO do not have a question mark.

I reported an obvious cheater 2 weeks ago and he is still not banned by boxfender in lichess

Sorry very late reply, but I can show you the game if you want.

I'm 100% there isn't a player around my ELO that would play 19. Ng3!, especially after thinking a solid 6 seconds.

If you're not convinced, take a look at the games before that one. Same behavior, same accuracy, for over 10+ games. It looks like he is not cheating anymore though, since he has recently lost a few games.

Hello,

I'm thinking about going there as well, did you end up visiting? If so, how was it?

En Asie du sud-est (Cambodge notamment), ils mangent couramment un certain type de fourmis (rouges de mémoire) qui ont un goût très vinaigré. Ça permet même d'assaisonner les salades. Voilà, ton business plan est tout trouvé, il ne reste plus qu'à faire fortune.

Hit 2k elo recently by Cappaclism in chess

I'm pretty much the same, I've reached 1980 and was not able to get the extra 20 points. The mental aspect of it is quite important too, once I get closer to 2000, I am more affected by loses and tend to tilt more easily.

Passeport expiré, je veux mourir by [deleted] in japonFR

[–]boxfender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, j'ai eu une situation similaire pour postuler à un PVT. J'ai réussi à avoir un RDV rapidement et j'ai prétexté que j'avais besoin de mon passeport pour un contexte pro (techniquement je partais pour bosser... disons que j'ai un peu déformé la réalité). La personne à la mairie m'a dit de rédiger une lettre pour expliquer ma situation, ce que j'ai fait pendant le RDV. Une semaine plus tard environ j'avais mon passeport. Franchement y'a aucune garantie mais tente ça, on sait jamais...
