Hi

How do you earn your points?

I`ve won around 800 games, my rating is 1576, but still I`ve only got 14 points. How come?

No, you're completely mistaken! The points have nothing to do with the number of games you win! You earn points by posting comments.

You get a point for every GM you have beaten OTB. When you gain a victory, you can file it and email a chess.com mod. They will verify, and if it is legit then they will grant you a point. 

 

All of my points are over Vasily Ivanchuk--but I cheated. I got him super wasted before playing him.
