How to calculate our elo • page 2/3 • General Chess Discussion • lichess.org

Pretty sure that test mentioned in #10 is broken
It showed my estimated elo to be 1992 with a 95% confidence interval between 1868 and 2116
Which does not go along with my lichess rapid rating

@Koo8384 lichess ratings and FIDE (elo) ratings are two completely different things

@concrete_steve Nice ! Well done.

So far, during these times it's the only way I've found which gives an 'average' ELO

@CHlivelylemon
I had taken the test more than a year ago: ELO Rating: 1908
With 95% confidence interval of 1782-2034

Better try this time also to check how much have I improved...

https://lichess.org/forum/general-chess-discussion/how-to-estimate-your-fide-rating-conversion-formula-inside

tldr:

FIDE Rating = 187 + Lichess Classical Rating X 0.38 + Lichess Blitz Rating X 0.48

@TheRoyalPlayer
I know that(bruh I am FIDE rated)
Lichess ratings are supposed to be more than your FIDE rating
If my strength is indeed 1992 then my lichess ratings should have been around 2200-2300

@Koo8384 you did not understand my message. I said that lichess and FIDE are two completely different things, meaning there isn't a linear correlation between the two. One may be great at lower time controls but lacking at classical chess. There is no general rule of lichess ratings being higher than your FIDE ratings.

Now I get it
True that there's no general rule for lichess ratings to be higher than FIDE ratings, but it's a benchmark

Now I find this, seems pretty legit

Also note that those are statistical estimates, to know your FIDE rating you would need to actually play in FIDE tournaments, there is no other way.
