Because I'm a sucker for punishment I tend to play bullet against computers, figuring that I'll get better at it if it isn't a mutual blunderfest. Unfortunately this means I just get snapped, and my last visit was no exception. Playing against Gizmo (2000+) I lost 0-3. The first game I was up a piece, and lost on time. The second game I left a mate in 1 on, and in game 3 I moved my attacked queen along the line of attack, losing it and the game. This left my Bullet rating at a very impressive 1320.
Contrast this with my rating at chessworld.net, which is about 1000 points higher. Of course there the time limits are in days rather than in seconds, and this leads me to the following formula.
Of course this is a back of the envelope calculation, and may not stand up to further testing.
