Tactics

Does anyone else feel like the tactics here are rigged?

That one will need explanation...

Unless this is leading up to the beaten to death topic of the points,

Yea him!

So you get the tactics rating points based on the percentage of the tactic you finished. The percentage is based on how many moves you do correct out of the total number of moves in the combination and also on how long you take on the tactic. Each tactic has a target time, and the more time you take compared to the target time, the percentage of the tactic goes down. At least that's how I think the tactics on chess.com work. I gave this answer as I think you were talking about getting one ore two points on a correct tactic and losing around 8 points on an incorrect tactic.

Rigged may be personal perception!

How many tactics did you play so far? 1,000,    or  100,000?

What is your expectation?

My perception is that a person need to play 10,000 tactics to get 2,000 rating.

The only threads that die here are the ones that are chess related.

Yes. Overall I think they are mostly fair. But I do think the point loss for getting them wrong is too low. Which means they are rigged to give people tactics ratings that are higher than their true ability. I dont think I'm 2100, but tactic trainer says I am. So in that way it might be rigged a little bit.

Where exactly do we find what we have to do on tactics ???

Yes, they might rigged to some people but not to all. (That is why some people still get 5000+, 10000+ in tactics ) 

And yes, some people still get rewards even if they did wrong! (look at my last puzzle, I still got +3 even though I did wrong)

If you get over 50% you get points.
