Hi guys,

Today I added a new Guess the Elo feature to my chess app. It now loads real games from a Lichess PGN database and pulls positions from actual rated games instead of using manually created examples. Now we have OVER 90 MILLION REAL GAMES!!!

Users are shown a real position from a game and have to guess the elo range of the players based on how the position looks. ( Got this idea from GothamChess) After each guess, it reveals the actual rating, along with details like both players’ ratings, the opening, and the game result.

I also added scoring and accuracy tracking so users can see how well they are doing over time. Similar to my other features.

PS: Got the idea from GothamChess!!! I will definitely recommend checking his GTE series out!
