No tournaments please

I have just lost 4 games without playing them.

There is something fundimentally wrong with this web site.

Yesterday I put a preference down that I did not want to be added into anymore tournaments - but on the contrary I was press ganged into one, and that is totally unfair and I am extremely annoyed that Richmond & Twickenham Club Championship added me.

I am busy doing other things, and ~ I did not even play, but I lost four games without a move after touching withdraw.

How do I leave a club?

You don't automatically start tournaments. You MUST manually click to join. Either someone else has logged into your account, or you're lying.

right u

" did not want to be added into anymore tournaments "    so why do you care are u loosing points ..

oops do tour... games  have effect on regular games points

cause i got into tour.. i am hooked up with expert 2200 point players and i am only 1700

Look under the "Details" tab for the ratings adjustment.

there is no possible way for somebody to add you to a match or tournament. you must have joined and not remembered :( or somebody else accessed your account. sorry!!

 I can see from your post and your accusation that you appear to be a bigot.

Chess is only a game, and nothing more.

Thank goodness I have another life - I had stipulated as a preference that I did not want to take part in tournaments for the forseeable future.

Thank God I am not a number, but a free person.

 Erik,

On reflection maybe in the past I might have clicked many moons ago to join the tournament, but in life things change - and life changes. This click may have occurred two months before, and since I updated my preferences two days earlier to say no tournaments - it must be a programme clich that the preference did not work.

Just because you changed the preference doesn't mean you automatically get withdrawn from the tournaments you already registered for, you have to do that yourself, and it's easy to find out what tournaments you registered for.

I think Nytik was a bit out of order actually. Isn't it possible that he didn't just forget?

You will just have to remember better next time is all. You can always change ur settings so u don't have team matches or anything like that if ur not interested.
