      I am headed towards 600 ELO In rapid chess… 10 minute games. It says ( Game rating 1100 ) and 84.5 % accuracy. What does that mean? Can anyone please help me and answer that? TY so much In advance.

      • First of all , it means you can beat me. Second, and this is just MY understanding, which could be inaccurate,is that the accuracy rating compared your moves vs. the computer moves. 100% means the computer didn’t find any mistakes in your play. You did what the computer would have done.

        No clue what the game rating means.

      • the engine estimated your playing at this rating, however it does not reflect your true stength in my opinion. I am currently around 1100 and often play at a 1600-1800 level… but playing opponents at my level is tough enough as it is…..

        • It also depends on the duration of the game, if it was a short game where your opponent blundered and resigned and you only made some good first moves, the computer might think you are a strong player. The other way around might also happen, you and your opponent might play pretty well in a very lenghty game, with some inaccuracies (which moslty happen in longer games) and the engine might give you a low estimated rating because of that
