Puzzle Rush "leagues"

Sort:
Avatar of amrugg

So, basically, the people in a league play Puzzle Rush, and get scores that go into the league's leaderboard.  To stop people from doing 5 puzzles and then getting 3 wrong, every wrong one(not ones you time out on) is subtracted from your score. Also, to encourage getting high scores, every 5 you get is worth 1 extra puzzle in the league(not for new scores on puzzle rush). So, if you get a score of 31 on Puzzle Rush, and got 2 wrong, and timed out the last, on the leaderboard he gets 35 new points. He got 31, because of puzzle rush puzzles solved, gained 6 extra because 30 divided by 5 is 6, that makes 2, and he got 2 wrong, and since 37-2 = 35. The top 10, or 100, or 1,000 get to advance, the other's don't advance. What do you think?

Oh, since I'm a diamond I forgot about them. It would encourage people to upgrade, but I guess they could have their own league, where they try to get as high a score as they could in 1 a day, or Chess.com could only have it for Platinum and higher.meh.png

We have a similar idea coming for puzzle battles.

But this way you could compete against about 100 people in one league.

Why you want to change the rules. Let the rules be same.

I'm not changing the rules of Puzzle Rush, I'm adding scores on the leaderboard.

Chess.com, as a site is accessible to all, but members are limited to their current membership plans. Typewriter and amrugg are just suggesting it for Platinum+, since they have unlimited access to puzzle rush.
