It isn't much, but it's honest work.

I've been playing for 1 month, from scratch. How do you think, I'm going? Honesty please.

Beginning to wonder what the ELO markers for beginners, intermediates, and advanced, thoughts?

What about it?

After about a year of consistent(ish) play I’ve gone from about 700 to 1300 and I’m not sure what I should call myself now because I’m still very much learning but to my understanding high ELO = knows stuff ?

This is why you don’t get cocky. Stalemate because he wanted a 3rd queen.

Why can I not get better at this game?

What about it?

I don’t know what else to say.

I was certain i blundered and later the engine told me that i made a brilliant move? I geniuenly dont understand how this is brilliant and its driving me insane

Black to play.

What about it?

Find the winning moves.

Lost this game but missed a forced mate, can you find it? White to play and win

I found myself in this position, and immediately played f3 to block the attack on my queen. There is a better move which leads to a material advantage for white.

3-Way!

Make sure to report the silent quitters

What about it?

After 6 minutes of idle, his screen must've turned off and he went into auto-resign.
