Sorry if this has been done but I used to play competitive chess a lot when I was young and my rating never went over 1200. I'm going playing otb tourneys again soon after playing loads here and was wondering would my rating improve over 1200. My rating here is still p but it's average about 1500/1400
So what are peoples OTB ratings and RHP ratings, I wouldn't mind seeing how they correlate.

Originally posted by georgiecaseyI don't have an otb rating, but as for the topic there must be 30+ threads on this already; just search through earlier thread pages. I found (a not so complete) one about 5 pages back and I know there are several pretty extensive ones. I'll save you the suspense too; there's no real meaningful correlation besides anything you might already conjecture. Higher rated players tend toward having higher otb ratings than lower rated players but whether that rating is higher or lower than their own rhp rating is pretty random.
haha! cheers mate, don't be too vague now.
i know it's very hard to compare, but what's your otb rating to kick it off?
