I achieved that by just playing a lot of games when I just subscribed. Before that I hardly could get over 1200. Altough I must add I was sinking when I had near 200 games going later on... Now I am somewhat back at the rating I should be, somewhere 1300+. Every now and then we all have a streak down or up.

I enjoy chess very much, and its quite tempting to play that many games. Unfortunately, I can't remember mapped out stragies I have for each one. What's more, my ultimate goal is to improve, and when playing that many games, you tend to move with haste instead of with careful consideration. I've noticed my rating to be more consistent recently because of the effort I'm putting forth in my games. I've still made stupid moves in haste and not thought out planned lines of attack all the way through. But I'm getting better though and that's all that matters to me.
Originally posted by rhb Lower banded is at 62 right now... upper is over 40 - maybe they will fill up afterall!
Upper has been around 40 for a week now...
I'm a bit surprised that not more +/-1600-players has turned up though. Not much hope of passing on to the second round perhaps - but this is a nice chance to meet someone good and perhaps learn a few things, and there isn't much danger to your rating either.
