My Puzzle Rating got a Question mark After Playing too many Games

After reaching 1850 in Puzzles I got a ? for some reason. Google says its because my game rating in Lower than Puzzle Rating but why does my Game Rating Care If I am doing Puzzles.

The reason its so high is because I play the Mode - Hardest 600+ - So I lose less rating but when I solve a hard Puzzle I gain more rating. I probably loose 20 Rating for gaining 60 so 40 + Rating.

Can someone tell me How to fix the Question Mark Because I am trying to get 2000 Rating. If I gain some more rating does the ? go. Please tell me

From the FAQ:

Why is there a question mark (?) next to a rating?

The question mark means the rating is provisional.

Concretely, it means that the Glicko-2 deviation is greater than 110. The deviation is the level of confidence the system has in the rating. The lower the deviation, the more stable a rating is.

You just gained 300 rating points, so that's the explanation. Just keep going and it should go away.

You don't have to worry about this until your puzzle rating reaches 2500. In your case, it is most likely provisional puzzle rating as suggested in comment #1. Note that rating deviation reflects not only the number of (recent) results but also their consistency. Your puzzle rating grew by 300 just in one day, if you keep performing at this level consistently, it will become stable again.

@mkubecek so tomorrow if I spend another hour on Puzzles getting to 2000 It will be stable because after 2000 I doubt I will perform like that So the only option is gaining more rating in puzzles or gaining more rating in Classical, Rapid, Blitz and Bullet

Not really. You need your results to be consistent. Further rapid growth is not consistency. You need to find the level reflecting your current abilities and perform consistently at that level for some time, whether it's 1600, 1800, 2000 or whatever else.

Game ratings do not play any role in this unless your puzzle ratings exceeds 2500. Only then you may hit the problem that your puzzle rating is shown as "?" unless at least one of your game ratings is higher than 1800. (You may search the forum for "dubious rating" for more discussion about this.)

So need to just spend a hour of Chess Puzzles Tomorow, Day after Tomorow, etc and consistently get 1800 - 2000 Puzzles Performances in all Puzzle types (Like Advanced Pawn, Checkmate, You can see in puzzle Dashboard) then the ? goes by itself

Also one question do I need to do Rated or Non-Rated and Rated. Because if I get Some Puzzle Wins or rated and then get the consistent performances on Non-Rated Does the ? go because I am getting the Performance of 1800-2000 or Just do Rated.

Yea Also Why do @mkubecek and @lonelypeanut always answer My Forums???

Only puzzles solved as rated affect the rating (and rating deviation). The purpose of solving as unrated is to allow trying a puzzle without any effect on your rating.

Other than that, I would recommend not to focus on the rating. Just do puzzles because you want to improve your tactical skills or because you want to have fun, the rating will settle down soon. The rating should only serve as a feedback for you. And the purpose of the "?" sign is to give a hint that the value is not reliable enough, usually because there isn't enough (recent) data available or because the results are not consistent enough. It's not a reason to be worried or feel that something is wrong.
