Guys, 4 hours ago I played a Blitz event of 2 hours duration and had entered it, several days before, with a lichess rating of 2490. BUT when I played the first game my rating was 2526.
And they ́ve rated me with the rating of 2490!!
So I have been, qute INcorrectly, docked 36 rating points.
Can some nice person in authority get me those back??
One thousand thanks, boys!
You haven't lost any points. It's a visual bug that only affects the first game and only if you have joined the tournament some time prior its start. It displays the rating you had when you joined, not the rating you had right before the game.
You may notice that your rating before that game was 2490 (2498 -8), you won the game and 7 points, and in your second game you were rated 2497, which is 2490 +7. So everything as it should be.

@Plaskett7 ... Nice dynamic book from when I used to gain so many rating points from 1255 to 2251 many a year ago'
@Plaskett7 You already made a thread, why did you COMPLETELY ignore the responses?
@Plaskett7 Why you don't just contact lichess with a report rather than hash this out in the forums? I think that would be more efficient for you and lichess.
So this is how GMs flex their rating in forums......i see.
