Watching Eric Hansen twitch stream has lost me so many Rapid rating-points.

Awhile back, I posted this post: https://www.chess.com/forum/view/community/brag and since then I have lost so many rating points from my all-time high of 1,406 to my current rating of 1,247 (it's definitely inflated since I haven't played in three months or so).  

In that post, I gave Eric Hansen credit for my rating points gain up to that point...like so: https://imgur.com/a/PvfLcXz 

Now, I am an equal opportunity credit giver as well as blamer.  Since, I gave credit to Eric Hansen for my rating-points gains up to the point of that "brag" post, I now must blame him for my rating-points losses since that post.  I literally didn't change a thing how I played since that post unless chess.com overlords didn't like me bragging and paired me up with difficult opponents.  There is literally no other explanation.

Hmm. 1406 to 1247 isn't a huge loss. Many people go through ups and down that large in a day.

Rather than trying to blame someone, why don't you actually start playing again?

@justbefair did you even read the whole thing or wtf? I gave him credit too.

Yeah but that doesn’t mean you have the right to put someone down
