im surprised that i cant figure this out....but how do i change my "home location"? for example, if i am searching in the "local" tab for tournaments or clubs or whatever, it has a set home location and i cant figure out how to change that anywhere...

MY HOME -> Account -> Profile.

You can change your Location, Country, Postal Code and Time Zone.

Presumably, however, when searching for LOCAL tournaments, chess.com uses the location of your ISP - which you cannot specify explicitly.

You don't seem to show up on the interactive map.

Hover over HOME (on the far right of the Command bar); in the context menu that is displayed, scroll across to Account and LEFT click on it.

In the My Account screen, Click on Edit your personal profile.

Scroll down to the Location field; type something.

Scroll down to Save Changes and click on it.

Pretty sure using a VPN is not going to help with that once the payment information is entered.
