Dear chess.com,

I have recently had a significant breakthrough in my understanding of chess. If my rating should skyrocket, there is no need to be concerned that I am cheating. However, should my rating plunge, I understand if you choose to laugh your asses off.

Dear Lee! You shouldn't worry.

Is your chess break through include successfully having a seance with Fischer?

Should I be afraid of some super move coming in our game?

Dear kleelof,

We have recently had a significant breakthrough in our understanding of overconfident players. If your rating should skyrocket, there is no need to be concerned that you are actually improving in chess. However, should your rating plunge, we understand if you choose to take your glasses off.

No doubt, it was talking with him that was the catalyst for my new understanding.

Dear cc,

I recently won a game and my rating jumped about seven points.

Please don't accuse me of cheating.

@ winkler 314:    This is from the "How are live seeks matched" article in Help & Support.

You might also wait longer if your seek includes specific minimum or maximum ratings for your opponent. In fact, if you enter a range that doesn’t include at least ratings 25 points lower and 25 points higher than your rating, we can’t pair you using the logic described above. Someone may still accept your challenge manually from the Seek Graph, but it will take a long time.

Here's a link to the whole article:

And you should probably take a look at this as well:

Hope that helps!
