Yes, great idea. IIRC chess.com only has tiny rating changes for 10 second games. Which is a bad idea because less people will be playing, it deserves it's own separate time control with unique rating. I also wish they would make the ultrabullet rating accurate, unlike on another site where I can barely make 1800 ultrabullet despite being 2200 bullet.

Yeah people used to go up regular in 10-second but it's so much different than the regular bullet that there were some amazing 10-sec players who were super high rated despite being much weaker in regular bullet

Not sure if this is a good idea or not, but I feel like it might be better to have them separate. Anyone else think it might be good?
Can we play im 1900

Yeah like @tooweaktoosl0w
Who peaked at 2600 by playing a bunch of 10 sec games, but is really only 1900 strength. It would be much nicer to have a separate ultrabullet rating where he is 2600, but he should only be rated 1900 in regular bullet

That would be a fantastic idea. I don't play 10-15 second games bc I will lose bullet rating. If it was a separate rating, then I could play it without having to grind bullet for an hour to get back the rating I lose from playing.
chess like that shouldn’t even exist.

I agree with Yoav, but it seems like chess.com isn't interested :/

I don't mind, but including classical probably has more sense. I don't expect either though in the short run.

Yeah, adding classical would also be good
yeah
@yoavjm_2004, wanna play bullet/blitz sometime? Maybe an adoption match, whichever time control u want.
