The resigned game counted. Think how many games would not count if your theory were correct.
This game was unrated. http://www.chess.com/echess/game.html?id=46708999
You will have to play two more rated games or go premium. There is a new official tournament every month. Since you plan to be here at least two years you will get to enter many.
Then unrated games don't count, that's the reason!
Hi everyone, I have just finished my 4th corrispondence game. Out of the four, I've won two, lost by checkmate in one and in the last game I resigned. The "total games" says 3 games played. Is this because resigned games don't count?
I'd like to join the 16th chess.com tournament, but i don't think I'll be able to play another game in 10 days.
