Putting a limit on team match challenges

This was added after a club flooded the system with hundreds of open seeks, blocking other clubs from being able to meaningfully use open seeks.
However, I believe the limit was only supposed to apply to open seeks, and you're trying to send a challenge to a specific club. Please report this as a bug.

Yes they are to specific clubs as part of a tournament

BTW, just my opinion, but unless several of those are rating-restricted with non-overlapping rating ranges, you're asking your members to play a lot of simultaneous team match games. You might get a higher participation level if you played fewer tournaments.

Seems this only works if you’re using a computer cuz I cannot find this
It never fails : if you can dream up a way someone can abuse the system there will ALWAYS be someone that will end up doing it and ruining it for everybody else.

I think many of us know which club abused the open seek system and flooded it. They still do, just not more than five at a time.

On a related note, how do you send out an open seek when using the Android app? I have done it before, but it appears that feature has either been moved somewhere else or removed entirely. I was in the "Create a Daily Match" screen, but the only option available was to challenge a specific club.

I don’t know I use my web browser.

I just fiddled around with the browser, and I wound up in the exact same spot. The option to create an open seek wasn't there either.

Doesn't it work to where if you don't name a club, that is an open seek? I thought that's the way you do it.

I thought so too. An open seek has no team named hence its open to anyone to accept. If it’s to a specific team it’s not open.

It was done month ago, I tried to speak to someone at Chess.com once it was put in place but I never got any feedback from them. Since it’s inception it has restricted both open seek and specific club challenges.

Yes I’ve spoken to chess.com and they said that it should only affect open seeks so they are looking into it.
