A fast pace of playing games on Lichess
Amused at the way how I am playing many games everydayHello everyone
Just a 3-4 months ago I only finished 2300 games. And I am astonished in the way how I finished 7700 games in a few months time. Probably the reason is because of playing many blitz , bullet and ultrabullet games for 3-4 months . I only finished 300 games in ultrabullet , 650 games in bullet and 200 games in blitz before 4 months. I did play at least 800 games in rapid that time so I am convinced that I even played many games in rapid also. I barely play classical because it is so boring to play online classical games. It is ok to play it in offline but it is really boring to stare at the laptop screen for a long time but only for 1 game.
My uncle said "Practice puzzles before you play , the number of puzzles you have done should be 10 times the number of games played". But I paid no attention to his words. Now after playing games at a fast pace , I have seen a huge rise in all my ratings (not variants). You would see that the puzzles I solved is not also double of the games I played , leave alone ten times. I am satisfied with my huge rise. So when after all these big rises , I once went to my uncle's house to spend a night , I took my laptop with me and showed him my stats. He was really happy. But 1 year ago he told me that "You are playing many games , that is ok , but look at your rating , it is awful". This 1 year was a really happy part of my chess career. I am very much happy.
I hope I rise many more , but playing the spring marathon , I have come to decline of 107 points. I was very distressed , I spent the whole day crying , until I wet my shirt. I came to know I was luckier when I had the news that my friend https://lichess.org/@/wolvensuperafm had lost 202 points playing mad in the marathon. But I have seen a approximately 90 rating rise in the passing 2 days. Before all these , when I finished playing bullet matches for the day on April 6 , 2022 , I finished with 1862 , next day I finished with 1832 , the next with 1802 then with 1831 , but the next day I was a but mood out because I was having an awful cold and I could manage only 1782 next day. Then the next with a slow 6 point rise to 1788 and then 1768. Then 1772 with a low rise then I went down to 1754 next day. Then for a little rise to 1758 then I had the awful decline in the summer marathon. Even in ultrabullet I have had a decline because of internet issues. Still yesterday representing team https://lichess.org/team/rapid-tournaments-gamers I had scored 64 points in that ultrabullet tournament https://lichess.org/tournament/k04dIoR9 . Still I am now managing a little bit. And I was so engrossed for a few days in bullet and ultrabullet , I suddenly played rapid and lost 50 points on that day in my chess class tournament. Even I was a little out of form in blitz chess so I had a very bad decline in the few passing days.
I think I have typed a lot. My hands are aching , so I think I have to finish this blog.
