Trophies

I would like to give out a trophy from time to time but the only ones I can bring up are the "Fun Trophies."  Is there a way to access others?

GAME TROPHIES - can only be awarded after a game has ended. There's a Give a Trophy link next to the board.

FUN TROPHIES can be given at any time. Either click on a member's name then notice the Give a Trophy link on the right-hand side (under Actions).

Or hover over a member's name in a forum posting, a hover menu appears which includes the option: Give a Trophy.

and then there are the SITE TROPHIES (located under FUN -> Trophies on the main command menu) ...

Incidentally, there's a thread where you can propose new trophies to help-make-chesscom-even-better.

I have the same problem.  When a game is over and I wish to give my opponent a trophy, sometimes the "regular" trophies come up and other times, it's the fun trophies that show up.  I still haven't figured out just how one can select either option.  Can someone come to my rescue?Smile

If you hover over a person's name in a forum listing, the mouseover menu that comes up contains a link: Give a trophy; these are always FUN trophies. Similarly, the Give a trophy link on a person's homepage always points to FUN trophies. 

The Give a trophy link next to the game board, on the other hand, ALWAYS points to Game Trophies.

You should begin to see a pattern emerging.

Thank you so much. This had indeed eluded me for quite a while.Smile

Perhaps you don't play TeROPHYc chess.
