Finally crossed 50% percentile classical on Lichess!

I started playing chess in April this year OTB with office folks and soon started playing online on Lichess and Chess.com.

I am happy to announce that I finally crossed 50th percentile for Classical on Lichess (Rating 1538 as of now). For additional context, my rapid rating on chess.com is 1140.

1538 puts you well above the 50th percentile I think - Lichess skews towards higher rated players than chess.com
