Hi Puchiko, It's Ok. I don't want to disturb to the others. They also want to play and win. I also have a lot of tournaments still going on. Thanks for the advice. :)

I was wondering if anyone can explain for me why higher ranked players are able to start in lower graded tournaments; for example there are currently 33 players on 1300+ in the 19th Chess.com 1001-1200 group. I thought the rankings were sorted into the correct grades before the tournament starts? How do the high rated players get into a lower rated group? Thank you.
Puchiko
Those players were in the rating range when the tournament started. However, they've won a lot of games since then, so their rating has changed since then.
Anyone know how to host unlimited competitor match...the most it allows me is 100...grateful to neone for advice...DW

I noticed on the tournament points leader-board there are two guys with over 2000 points and yet they have only played in 1 tournament, and one guy with over 3000 who hasn't played in any!...how come?

How can we view the trophies we have won in tournaments??

I have a doubt, if you registered in a tournament of 100 players and there are several groups and Each move has upto 5 days time, then typically such a tournament would run for like 1 yr to finish just the group stage matches???
knadi: You are quite correct. Large tournaments do take a long time to finish, especially if players take vacations.
Puchiko- how does taking a vacation affect the tournament. In the middle of a game can a player simply take a vacation for a month?
kohai
Deathwish, thats the limit sorry. Only staff can create unlimited and those are for official tournaments.
