For quite a long time now I am winning close to no game in classical mode anymore. If I do, the opponent usually plays like a little child and hangs all his pieces.
does anybody here experience the same mysterium?
WTF, you just dropped 50 points. Look at my rating graph, dude :-)
I now work on my chess in a structured way and go up slowly again.
It happens to me from time to time. I think it's a normal thing. Besides, it seems everybody is playing well nowadays.
I lose a lot of points when my kids are in the room. Mysterious swings of mood/ability to play fast with a 4 year old trying to pass gas in my face. I laugh a lot, and drop hundreds of points.
Not sure you should worry about it rating, it will probably catch back up to your ability (or catch back up when the kids go to bed). lol.
Take a week off then come back. I do it every once in a while and often come back stronger than before.
