That would be a nice feature, but then seeing all the tournaments is a tempting lure for those of us (you and I) who haven't yet got a full membership. It's quite a handy way to remind people that they're only $30 away from joining as many tournaments as they'd like.
Filter tournaments by eligibility?
Sort:
Ah, well that was one of my questions. If I subscribe, does that override the "you need to have played at least n games" type restrictions?

A Silver/Gold member is limited to 10 ongoing tournaments. You cannot bypass the "you need to have played at least n games" restriction in member-created tournaments. Why would you join a tournament where you are not welcome?
Official chess.com tournaments allow premium members to bypass the restriction. At least that was the last position on the subject that I am aware of, but the site rules may not be set in stone yet.
As I see it though your main problem is timeouts. The default for tournaments is less than 10%. Some tournament directors set this even lower to increase the chances the games have a non-timeout result.
Hi gang,
Is there any way to filter the tournaments list by eligibility? I've just attempted to join about 10 of them and it's only when I click Join that it tells me I can't for various reasons.
It'd be handy to be able to view only those I can actually join.
Cheers,
Mark
