Rating Charts ... just wondering
if there are some interesting charts out there. Mine used to be 2 horizontal lines. Recently that changed and I havent decided if it looks more like a ship sinking ... or a very large shark in the waters (for Ive experienced both sinking and being eaten alive recently on GK).

Got me wondering about funny charts. Will settle for strange or even unusual.

OK, for that matter even serious chart questions. (But I cant answer em ... thats why they are ok here.   ) Or related topics.

I am quite fond of my rating chart, there is no pretty pattern or funny shape. It is what I consider to be exatly how a health rating chart should be. That is a gradual but steady increase, there arelittle ups and downs however the theme is a continual increase of both my rating and opponents rating. My opponents ratings seem to be jumping above my own line as well which is I think another good feature.


Infact I encourage everyone to take a look at my chart, it tells a story of an improving player

Yes thats true, But . . .
Imo the story is even better looking to your game HISTORY. With the increase in wins, and many of the losses going to people you are "supposed to" lose to. (That most anyone is supposed to lose to for that matter) Freddie and Ion among them. I like your history for the added detail. And that you Are "playing up". The best way to gain skill from play. Nice job!

Thanks!
It's a really great thing to see that it gets noticed. Infact I think I have had quite a leap in my ability these past few weeks and maybe monthes especially.

thanks Freddie ...
I see the light. If my flatline chart has only been defibrillated ... it will soon spring back to life. lol Exactly what my game needs!

As a matter of fact I keep seeing faces in my chart, lots and lots of faces. No matter how I look at it all I can see is those danm faces!

Mine is mainly an even line, although a slight drop lately. However, it is neat to look at my all-time chart as I started with very little chess experience and started at 1000 in '05 and brought it up to as high as 1830.
