Hi,
When using the training feature ( puzzles ) im sometime s disappointed. I mean when a move provides the same advantage according stockfish but which is not the solution of course i lost. Ok i understand its a training who cares about lost points blablabla.. But wouldnt training be better if :
1) having a "chat" to talk with other people who have tried the puzzle, discuting about the solution and about the position, plans and so on
2) having a kind of stat ( lets say the top 3 moves played by players ) in order to think about this moves and having other points of view
3)having an error margin, i mean if the solution gives +3 and your move is +2.9, so it should be ok. Sometime best computer move is just non human understandable !
All of the puzzles around your rating level are totally human understandable. The only puzzles I've done where I looked at the analysis afterwards and thought "well, that's a bit computer-ish, to see that the eventual attack is that strong" were rated 2300+. And even then, I'm sure good human players (better than me) would have suspected such.
I do lots of puzzles while logged out every day (when logged out, the site seems to assume you have a puzzle rating of 1500). At your rating level, you should focus on getting used to taking in the entire board and noticing which of the pieces are attacked, inadequately defended, hanging, pinned, etc. Then you will improve.
@biscuitfiend lol my rating is above 2000 and it seems that thing are not so obvious ;) its really weird at training you have 2300 but in bullet 1500. Why ?
I haven't played any rated games recently. That rating is from several months ago, when my training rating was much lower.
1500 over 400 games is revelant of your level. So you explain me to look at entire board pinned pieces deflection and so on but in games u dont apply ur advices according ur elo. Btw i was talking about position where the correct move is +3 because in 20 turn you will have a killer move vs humand understadable which is +2.9 and gives good plans and positional advantage quickly in practice
I explained myself and you completely ignored my explanation. When it comes to bullet, 400 games can be played in a single day; my 400 games were played over the course of a few months, and I haven't played a rated game (to my recollection) since something like February. So it's entirely possible that my rating "should" be higher.
Can you give an example of a puzzle you've recently solved where there is not recognized as the solution but leads to a clearly winning position?
@MessyAnswer are you really a 1700 fide player?
Surprised to see again that people take bullet ratings very serious.
1 0 games are not specifically about your chess skills, whether it is ratings over 1000 or 2000 bullet games.
You can find players with 1500 blitz and rapid rating but 2000+ bullet ratings, just because they are fast, have good computer mice, good Internet connection, and are able to play fast premove "nonsense" moves to win on time.
Blitz and slower is still chess. Bullet is not really about the beautiful game of chess.
@noobforlife why not? There used to be a 2700 bullet player who was about 1400 FIDE (he was about 2100 when I last checked).
I am 1304 FIDE but >1700 Blitz, >1800 Rapid. Online Rating is extremely overrated because you can play a game whenever you want (for example I can't play in many OTB tournaments because of some real life stuff).
