Chess. Getting 1400 elo isn't happening.
I keep getting as high as 1397 then losing, the last two games I won the first getting me up to 1396 then lost putting me down to 1388.
I'm still in the top 5 percent which has always been my goal but being so close to 1400 and not getting it is fucking annoying.
I should be grateful, it was only last year I was looking up at 1300 players like they're grandmasters now I've beaten a few high level 1400 players, 1499 is my best win against some Saudi man.
When I say it isn't happening, it might happen, but not on this hot sweaty day.
I always played 4 games today just to try and make it happen, lose win win lose were the results.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
