Why Am I Now In The Stone League?

Sort:
user0719

I had to jump out of leagues myself, because I got so burned out trying to advance every week that I just couldn't enjoy chess anymore. Plus I felt a lot of internal pressure to "win" all the time, which made me nervous and lose more games than usual. A casual player I am not, that is to say I take this game seriously. But this is one form of competition that, personally, I can do without. Having said that, I'm still happy that there are some players who enjoy it.

I'm wondering why I'm still in the stone division. 

chess.com said like : Ends in August 22 (1 day from now)

Does that mean tomorrow I might get promoted to Crystal Cup?

Bronze is after Stone.

Based on your trophy count, it's very likely you'll promote.

Malishious

How do you earn trophies? Don’t you get a trophy if you win a game?

And does anyone know how to find a survey?

The current survey is on the right panel on the Chess Today page. The header is a link to previous surveys.

You'll get them the next time you promote. 

 

Otherwise, the backfill code is currently only in Beta last I knew, but will probably be released more widely soon.

The only promotion left for me is Legend. That requires a huge time commitment, and if I don't win the group it could take weeks.

Do you know if the problem is currently being looked at? This issue has been ongoing for months. Is anyone trying to solve the problem? Or did they just give up?

League achievements are relatively new. They had some backfill code in place for a while but pulled it due to some undesired behavior with the awards on mobile apps. The site recently fixed that and have the code live on beta (as mentioned in my previous post) and have for this past week.  It's out to a small percentage of regular members right now as well.


You might try going to the main league page https://www.chess.com/leagues and see if they populate and if that doesn't work, try going to your current division. However, it's possible your account isn't in the limited release but that should increase relatively soon.

For me, it's not about getting to Legend, it's about getting the achievements for the previous 7 leagues.

I will keep an eye out. Seems to me though that if only a small percentage members are affected the site should just release the 'fix' instead of a limited release.
