      Evening Nelson.

      Can you keep the same Elo rating over different game variables? IE 10 min/15 min rapid and blitz games. I am going to try all different skill levels from scratch ( as I am a beginner really) but do not want to lose my ELO.

      Keep up the great work

      • each game type has its own rating. such as blitz, rapid, bullet, daily, etc

        • Also a thing I realized (though I’m not always following my own advice 😛 ) is to stop worrying about losing ELO. I always stopped playing when I reached a milestone (like 800/900/1000/1100 etc) because I felt good about reaching it and then stayed there and switched game type. But you will get the ELO you are actually at sooner or later. The more games you play, the more you get your actual ELO and know exactly your level. Just my opinion but it helped me, now I don’t stop playing after reaching a desired ELO and if I stay around that ELO for a while it means I got to that level if not, it means that I got a lucky streak of wins.
