Resigned games count in total games?

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.

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.

Of course resigned games count.

But it looks very strange, you've played 4 games, but as you say only 3 games in your stats.

I guess its because of the game you won on time on 8 moves, but im not sure. You can try message the support.

You've finished four games. Three were rated and will figure in your stats, one was unrated and will not.

Timed out games less than seven plies (three and a half moves) do not affect ratings but count in win loss stats.

 Ah, thanks Wink Then unrated games don't count, that's the reason!

Wow, I didn't know there is an official torunament every month, that's wonderful!

Thank you all Laughing
