question about leagues?

It worked for me. Your claim that it didn't count is unreliable yet mine is provable since I have not played many games. Also, people can have the whole day to play. It's winter break. Or he could be a full time streamer

Only the Variants in Live count, not in /variants.

Oh, thank you, that explains it for me.

I've been watching the number of players in each league, and for some reason it keeps going up DURING the week (not on Sundays when everyone gets promoted, or not).

Can someone explain this?  For example, I checked on Bronze league just yesterday, and there are 10,000 additional players in it today.

I wrote down the numbers, so I know it's not a problem with my memory.

Most divisions started on Sundays. Some didn't.

How will chess.com even send the money, crypto?paypal?bank?

Will that make a difference to you?

I imagine they will have to ask for some identifying information, maybe even your address.

Is that a problem?

Was just thinking, because I am 9 years old. My parents do not even know I play chess, so was wondering how I will approach them. Thx for the replie.

And since on my account today I’m reaching crystal.@roadto1500robeatjulian

@Roadto1500tobeatjulian

How can that be? (That your parents don't even know you play chess?) You must be playing for several hours per day. (How many hours are you playing?)

I hope that you will tell them. You have done something good making it this far but you really need to tell them. 

You have little or no chance to make it to the end. Think about how many hours you put in to make it this far. Well every single player who moves on will have spent a similar amount of time. Everyone who hopes to keep moving on will have to increase the time each and every week.

For players that promote, they are not added to a division until they log in after the previous week's division resets. So the count increase is for players that sign in later in the week.

Please tell us if you did what I asked. (Telling your parents about what you are doing on the chess.com site.)

I was glad to hear back from @Roadto1500tobeatjulian that he has talked with parents.

However, it seems like he is still trying...

/ Looks like it will be a brutal uphill climb this week.

/ Still in 18th place. Further behind whoever's in third place.

7th 

I believe in myself

Yes, you've almost caught up to where they were three days ago...

You should catch up on your sleep tonight.

You can try again starting tomorrow afternoon.
