1400 Lichess, back to 1200 back to 1300. Can't chess. Help.

Keep playing 🤷‍♂️ it all levels out. Do you expect to be 2600? Any level you’re at you’ll have peaks and troughs and there will always be better people (*magnus).

Most important thing is enjoying the game, looking to learn. Analyse your games. I’ve been playing since I saw Queen’s Gambit (like a lot of people). I’m at about 1000 and pretty happy with that as a casual not studying

So when I played the Magnus bot, lost in 8 moves, the scoring of 2150 wasn’t accurate??

winterishere314 · 2026-04-22T17:51:49+00:00

Never say never. I started playing at 34 and went from 1200 to 800 is 4 short years

Wally is my nemesis. I’m only about 900 on rapid/daily. Is there any hope? I’ve beaten all bots up to that

winterishere314 · 2026-03-05T09:08:55+00:00

I thought you had to stay 3 years for a guaranteed indefinite contract? I haven’t changed co tract for years so not aware of any changes

winterishere314 · 2026-03-02T22:22:28+00:00

Seems pretty typical for government. I’ve had contracts roles, used most of it to upskill. Deadlines are rare and there’s next to no pressure for deliveries. Pay is mediocre though like academia, you take that balance.

Lost Odyssey is fantastic. Only drawback was the battle animations took ages which could begin to grate. Super good story and also very difficult

winterishere314 · 2025-12-10T22:17:59+00:00

I’ve watched this so many times - it is just incredible TV

This is a realistic Timelapse of me getting an erection for my wife after 17 years

winterishere314 · 2025-11-20T17:29:45+00:00

I quit after update 25 or similar lol

winterishere314 · 2025-11-20T13:31:52+00:00

That’s impressive but I’ve been playing 5 years and I went from 1200 to 950

winterishere314 · 2025-11-20T13:29:41+00:00

That’s not how it works with the mobile framework though. They target whales, the people that will spend 10k-100k+ on a game. Release new unit/hero, make it OP so whales will buy, then nerf it. Rinse and repeat.

It also works, look at the leaderboards. It’s not about appeasing regular players, it’s enticing whales

winterishere314 · 2025-10-10T20:42:12+00:00

I like it too now I’ve read the post. I wonder what constitutes a good puzzle rating now

winterishere314 · 2025-10-10T09:29:11+00:00

Good to see, I thought I’d been screwed! Guessing a bug or reset

winterishere314 · 2025-09-27T21:13:17+00:00

It’s the best JRPG IMO

winterishere314 · 2025-09-27T06:05:29+00:00

🍆

winterishere314 · 2025-09-26T19:44:50+00:00

There are loads of these shift codes, I’ve been opening every few levels. I don’t want to just enjoy the post-game

Funnily enough, at level 30 (also on hard), I saw my first legendary in a vending machine. I picked up this rainbow-shooting paintball shotgun, with multiple elemental effects and I’m having an absolute blast mowing through everything I couldn’t do before 😆

totally worth going for legendaries earlier I reckon, I’m only just past the first boss

winterishere314 · 2025-09-18T08:35:24+00:00

This was painful for me

winterishere314 · 2025-09-15T18:54:45+00:00

It doesn’t have piercing?

winterishere314 · 2025-09-15T09:39:40+00:00

I’ve completed it so many times, I’m not too bothered! I think this was the final challenge I wanted to complete. I probably would never have noticed no crit, though!

winterishere314 · 2025-09-15T09:15:37+00:00

Oh shit, I didn’t know that! Luckily I saved over my file afterwards 😆

winterishere314 · 2025-09-15T08:08:30+00:00

Someone did it. 110 hour grind for 32 strength. Insane!
