Welp, today i lost to a 345 elo kid, I'm a 1060! Well maybe its because im rusty after not playing for 8 months or I thought this was a easy win and sold the game, maybe that's why I lost. This also isn't the first time I lost to a person with significantly less ELO than me. I once lost to a 400 once. Oh well, AMA

That sounds like some pretty shaky math, CBB.

People don't realise how much harder OTB is than chess.com. I'm fr 1800 OTB :/

Some players study a lot and don't play rated games for a while so they'll be a lot better than their rating shows.

And yeah, otb is the real thing, not like online at all. So the ratings are vastly different.
