Drachen-Deus
Hi everyone, as my points give away I'm pretty new to the site (been here for two days now to be precise), and I'm still getting used to everything so I don't know if these two things I've noticed are errors if I'm just doing something wrong.
First and foremost, I'm sure all of you are quite aware of the "Explore My Games" area under the "My Home" drop down menu. When you go there, I assume what is MEANT to happen is a list of games you have played on the site is displayed, allowing you to choose from them at will to look at, analyze and the like. When I click it however, I am told that the player Drachen-Deus is not found in the database, and it merely displays a board in the starting position. I have played 4 games on this site (won 3, lost 1, all live) and I am curious as to why to view my games I have to go to "Play Live Chess" rather than using "Explore My Games". This is barely anĀ inconvenience, but if there is a bug in the system I am sure the site Admins would like to know about it..
My second issue which I am almost certain is a bug is to do with Chess Mentor's progress graph. My current rating is somewhere around 1800, however the graph under 90 days shows a rating of 1200 with no changes, a graph under all other settings excluding all time shows a rating of 1300 with no changes (flat line at 1300, no show of rise considering starting rating is 1200) and a graph under all time shows the correct numbers, however no actual graph is shown. The graph is completely blank. Is there anyway to fix this?
Other than that, I am absolutely loving this site so far. The resources are incredible and everything there is to offer (ESPECIALLY the opening and game libraries and the computer analysis option for completed games) are nothing less of fantastic.
If the above issues aren't bugs and they are just me being an idiot, I apologize..I'm really, REALLY new. Thanks in advance :)

I think the "Explore games" list shows the online chess games that you've played. You know, the kind with 1 day/move or 3 days/move time limits. Live chess is in it's own separate universe.
The chess mentor graphs....well, beats me! Maybe it just takes some time for it to update.
You're not being an idiot at all, you obviously haven't been in the forums for very long!

This is why: Insufficient data for graphing. Saw this on your stat page. You will need to play a number of games before is start showing.
Thanks to both of you, you've been a huge help! And thanks for that last comment Padman, I appreciate it :)
