A chrome extension that replaces your chess.com rating with a rank

I have been playing more chess recently and found myself focusing too much on how individual games impacted my rating. I'm still trying to track my progress, so rather than removing the rating altogether I made this chrome extension to replace my chess.com rating with a tier.

There are currently 6 tiers, each with 4 to 5 sub-tiers. Here are the relative tiers and percentiles for each tier:

  • 🔔 Bronze (~25% of players)

  • 🥄 Silver (~25% of players)

  • ⚜ Gold (~25% of players)

  • ⚔️ Platinum (~15% of players)

  • 💎 Diamond (~7% of players)

  • 👑 Champion (~3% of players)

You can also turn on the "use USCF ratings?" setting to get a tier that is based on the Elo rating distribution of US Chess Federation players instead of the rating distribution of chess.com players.

Let me know what you think - still a work in progress. The code and more details can be found here on GitHub

What do all of these tiers mean in rating

Since chess.com says I’m 99.5 percentile

Chrome says its not safe...would love to try it though

 

The extension has to ask for some permissions, but the extension itself doesn't do anything unsafe and you can see all the code here to confirm. I haven't heard of anyone being prevented from installing it - what version of Chrome are you using?

Updated the extension to have more tiers for higher rated players!
