Woot! Tactics Rating 2500!! hehe! (probably too lucky, I feel that I will drop soon)
With the new scoring system, 2500 is the old 2300....so you are going to need another 200!
Getting tactic rating 2400 back
Sort:
I get about +200 in one month! Lol!
New system favours those who have higher accuracy. I have about 65% correct score/accuracy.
For those who have 50% correct score, new system wont give you anything.

Black gets the pawn back with Rb8. So thats not the defect in black's position, but you get points if you saw the moves without relying on being told its a tactical position . Supposedly its that the c-pawn becomes a passed pawn after all of that, while blacks kingside pawn majority is blockcaded.
I checked with SF today.I am very happy that SF agreed 1. Bb6 as best move. It is possible that I might play 1. Bb6 (50% chance) in 30 mins rapid game or longer.( I wont play 1.Bb6 in bullet or blitz though). The reason is that " position is not quiet, you are forced to think tactics".
There was only three tactical lines I considered,
1. Bb5+, not good.
2. Bxe5, not good
3. Bb6, very risky .But look like it works due to multiple hanging pieces from black.
OMG, passed 2900+ rated puzzle. I will post again when I reach 2600 or pass in 3000 rated puzzle.

Spelling and grammar aren't your strong points, are they, Cottonsock?

This is clearly overrated cos most free members are not interested in taking 5 free tactics per day seriously.
When I compare it with other ranking, my bullet ranking is around 260 and my blitz ranking is around 360 in Australia.( blitz is the most reliable rating indicator).
Black just moved be7 to bc5 to chase the queen....but where will it go?
Hmm, I could not find a forced win for white.
1.Bxf6 Bxd4 2. Rxd4 Rd8 (Failed sac)
1. Simply 1.Qd3 would be the best chance to win strategically. Black likely to lose.
Getting higher rating with new rare puzzles! Get my first comment in a new puzzle! Feels good!

Tactings rating is as useful as a chocolate teapot.

You should get better rating to access/ play higher rated puzzles! <2000 puzzles are quite similar to daily puzzles, very boring!
you can custom to play 2800+ but unrated

Hmm, I dont think it is available for free users!
oh didnt knew that sry
Wow! This become a reality, 2600! I neglect the clock and think seriously. In this last 2800+ puzzle, their target time is 0:45. I took 7 minutes but still get +7 .( double marks with new rules).
Dammed I am not getting back 2400 tactics over there again.
As there is no time limit, the difficulty of those 2400-2500 standard puzzles are approx equal to 2800-2900 time pressure puzzles here.

Yeah, that might be the new rules, but the only one you'd be fooling is yourself. Thats why Im tapering off tactics since Im taking too long. If you look at what everyone around you is doing is getting them right at least 50% quicker...and a lot of times 75%+ quicker.
I would try
1. Bb6 Qxb6
2. Nxd5 Nxd5
3. Qxd5 White gain one centre pawn, other than that, I dont see any other better forced move!
