I recently won 3 games in the QuickKnockouts tourny. 2 by resig. 1 on time. How come my rating didn't go up?
if the game is less than 4 moves it duznt affect ratings. I hate that rule tho
I looked at these games and it appears that they did not have the minimum number of moves required by chess.com to be an "official game" in terms of rating adjustments. I believe the minimum is 5 but someone may want to correct me if I am wrong.
you just repeated me :0
depends if the game was rated or unrated. nice job though
did u read the earlier posts??????
so if ppl dont like the way things are going in 4 moves they can resign and it doesn't affect rating? thats bullshit
i know eh?
I agree. It's not right - but it's the way it is. Apparently there is some sort of logic behind it in that top level games are rarely decided after 3-4 moves. However, some people may start a game and then forget about it. Or something. Doesn't make any sense to me. When you start a game you accept a contract and I agree with you that it should count whether it is 1 move or 100 moves.
totally agreed. :)
if it doesnt go beyond 4 moves no changes at the rating
The help topic indicates less than four does not affect rating. So three and a half is required.
