This is a demo club. The club and the player names are invented. The ratings and games are real, from people who play on both sites, with every name removed. A real ladder reads its players from Lichess and chess.com every 10 minutes to every week, depending on how recently each one played. Start your own.

Each site and time control is its own rating pool, so Lichess and chess.com numbers sit side by side and are never mixed. Sorted by the biggest rating change; press a column to sort by it.

A question mark after a rating: the site still calls it provisional. An asterisk after a change: I have no rating from before the period (the player joined, or started this time control, during it), so it counts from their first rating inside it. Streak: days in a row with a rated game on either site. Freshness: players who played in the last day are read every 10 minutes, and so is anyone who played in the last 30 days while someone has this page open. Players active in the last week are read every hour and a half, players active in the last 30 days daily, everyone else weekly. Lichess and chess.com limit how often I can ask, so "Refresh now" works once every 2 minutes per ladder. Glossary · How the two sites compare

Rating lines, both sites
Blitz ratings since Oct 8, the most active players first. The number at the end of each line is today's rating.
When the club plays
Rated games per player per day over the last 35 days, both sites together. 1,209 games on 34 of 35 days; the busiest day of the week is Fridays.
Where the club's ratings sit
Each dot is a club player, placed by rating. The gray bars are all 656 accounts I track, as a share per 100-point band. Provisional ratings are left out.
Pairings for the next club night
Everyone sorted by blitz strength and paired with the nearest player. Lichess ratings are used as they are; chess.com-only players are placed with the fitted comparison and marked "est.". A starting point, not a rule.
Elena M. has the bye.
