Converting Chess.com to USCF

Hello all. I am considering entering more tournaments in the ner-future. However, since I have only competed in one tournament, a long time ago, my rating is 754. Now, I'm not an amazing chess player, but I'm not that low. I have played an NM who estimated my rating at ~1200-1250. Does anyone propose a formula that could convert chess.com's rating system into USCF? Responses would be highly appreciated. If no formula is available, can people post their chess.com ratings and USCF ratings? 

Thanks a ton in advance.

This page may help you find your estimated rating: http://www.chess.com/article/view/chesscom-rating-comparisons

I already consulted it, and am searching for other opinions. If I can get enough data, I may be able to rough out a conversion formula.

Edit: I have found a thread with sufficient information for me to formulate a semi-accurate formula. I will post it once I have the time to perform some number-crunching.

I'm just wondering why you need to guesstimate your current USCF strength. Can't you just play in a number of tournaments and see where your rating settles at?

This.  What does it matter what your rating is it at...whether its current/provisional/old/etc ??  You'll naturally get to your rating by playing games.  When my rating was first started(its still provisional now unfortunately, I blame college) I was at 1100 and beat a 1700 USCF, won some cash at a local tournament for biggest upset!  There are upsides to unintentionally sandbagging 

My USCF rating is 754 (I'm way underrated). I would need to play in a large quantity of tournaments in order to stabilize my rating. I would like to be able to see what rating I have approximately from my chess.com ratings so that I don't have to wait months and months. I will, eventually, stabilize my rating, but for now, an estimate is sufficient.

It will take so long? You need to play about 13 games to get a FEDA rating (Spanish national rating), if I'm not wrong. But, anyway, I think the FIDE rating is more interesting.

To me it seems like online chess is overrated, live chess is underrated compared to normal ratings. In my case I'm 17xx OTB, 2000 Online, 1700ish Standard and 1300-1500 bullet/blitz. Tactics/Chess Mentor are even more overrated, although it seems there was some TT deflation since they added a billion new problems.

Judging by your ratings I'd say 1100ish OTB? It will stabilize fairly quickly though, so just find out.

Thank you, that helps.

This isn't very good. There have been better studies posted on the forums.

The average of live chess standard and online chess ratings -100* = USCF rating.The average of live chess standard and online chess ratings -200 = CFC rating.The average of live chess standard and online chess ratings -300 = FIDE rating.

Based on 52 people. 

*about 100,200,and 300

You would be about 1005 USCF. 

No. First of all, online and live are different by 300 something points.

That low? In my venture to find my rating, I asked several USCF Candidate Masters that I know from chess camp to give me an estimate, and they said about 1250...

1200's probably about right

Blitz and standard are underrated anywhere from 100-300 (or more)

We can debate whether it's 1000, 1100, or 1200, but the proof is in the pudding. Just play one or two dozen tournament games, and you'll have your answer.

Well, I enjoy pudding, so I will continue to search for clues in the aforementioned amorphous solid ;)

Thanks for the input. You appear to be the world's leading expert on such a matter. Your help is (not) appreciated.

My rules of thumb:

(1) Take chess.com online (correspondence) rating, subtract 800-900 points, and you have USCF standard (non-rapid) rating.

(2) Take chess.com blitz (5-minute) rating, add 100-200 points, and you have USCF standard (non-rapid) rating.

These should be applied in averages, not to individual players.
