Does your rating starts at 100 or 1000 Officially !?

I'm not talking about online , I know here it's 100 to start with.

I'm talking about FIDE official lowest rating available is it 1000 or 100?

🤔

it starts at undefined, then it gets a value based on your first performance - like anything, a

eh?

So you are saying it starts from 0? Some one just learned how the pieces move and moved pieces in one game only does he have a rating 100, 200? Or 1000, 1100?

FIDE Ratings Start from 1000.In starting games, rating changes are high ( as on chess.com and lichess)  but once you settle rating changes are normal, as here.

I see ... so 1000 .....

What about under 1000? No such thing? So person just learned the name of the game and how the pieces move has 1000 rating right? Why chess.com has under 1000rating category then? Why don't they follow proper FIDE regulations?

No, they don't start at a number. You're unrated until your first performance that qualifies you for a FIDE rating. You have to play at least 3 FIDE rated players and you have to score at least 1 point. Something like that. Then they do the math stuff, and you get your first rating.

So out of 3 games you just draw one or 2 , what is your rating? Or win one agaisnt weakest player , what's your rating then?

So it can be 100 points?

it depends on the rating of your opponents, obviously. yes, it can probably be 100 points, but you have to be amazingly bad to get this low. 

ESP-918 Chess.com do not follow FIDE System because their are so many grandmasters playing on this website. If they would start from 1000, it would take time of such grandmasters to reach their peak ratings. So, if you are a expert of chess, you can directly start from 1800 on chess.com.

If you have never played a FIDE-rated game, you have no rating (not 0, but nothing!).  To get your first rating, you must play at least 3 FIDE-rated players and score at least 1 point (e.g. 1 win or 2 draws).  If I remember correctly, your rating is still provisional until you have played 4? rated games (in USCF it is 25 rated games).  That means your rating is calculated based on your performance against all other rated opponents you have played so far.

For example, if you played 4 people who were all rated 1200 (using the simplified formula):

+1-3=0:  (1600+800+800+800)/4 =   1000

+2-2=0:  (1600+1600+800+800)/4 = 1200

+3-1=0:  (1600+1600+1600+800)/4 = 1400

+4-0=0:  (1600+1600+1600+1600)/4 = 1600

FIDE will not record your rating for anything lower than 1000 (see section 7.14d:  https://www.fide.com/fide/handbook.html?id=172&view=article).

THANK YOU VERY MUCH !

ALL I NEEDED was a little sentence in the end FIDE will not record your rating lower then 1000 , so plain and simple it mean roughly speaking everyone starts at 1000 it's lowest possible no matter how many games you've played or how bad you are lowest class would be 1000rating

Guess what !? You can't be 100 rating evendors if you are that bad , next time don't teach someone something that you are not sure of !

Refer to post 11

Lol, I didn't teach you anything. I even said "probably", indicating that I don't know it. But yeah, I was wrong there.

Fide starts at 1000, USCF starts at 100

1001 is lowest fide

You also don't know any English!

If you don't know something you say MAYBE and not PROBABLY, oh man just stop talking you are digging yourself deeper and deeper into to the hole. 😂

yeah exactly, that's why I have a master's degree in English linguistics... because I "don't know any English"  please stop embarrasing yourself.

It all depends on how high your opponent is rated. For example:

You are 1000. Your opponent is 2000. You won!

You see how the opponents rating is 1000 points less than mine?

I can multiply that by 2 and get a rating of 2000!

Great. I broke the 2000 barrier.

That is the ratings thing on USCF. I am not sure if the same thing works for FIDE.

Not only does it not start at zero, ratings can't go below 100.
