Hello fellow chess lovers and friends!

Currently I am trying to have fun while completing the Chess.com achievements https://www.chess.com/awards/lordananas/achievements .

However some of them appear not to work correctly. I would like to list them below and see if somebody can help me with the possible problems.

Moreover please note that I have already googled how to solve the issues finding some helpful information like here: https://www.chess.com/forum/view/general/chess-com-achievements-achievements-how-to-earn-2018-11-05. Altough it is still not enough. My numeration below is based on the previous link.


6. First (Comment on daily puzzle) - Issue: Somehow I dont have this achievement in my list...

18. Sillicon Brain (Attempt all drills) - Issue:  I dont know what I have to do. What is a drill? xD

34. Second Opinion (YOU analyzed a game) - Issue: I analyzed several games, right after a game and somewhen later. I did it with and without the help of an engine. I drawed arrows and tried some moves but nothing seems to work. What should I do?

35. Hindsight 20/20 (YOU analyzed 10 chess games) - Issue: Same as 34.

37. Introspection (Use "My Games" Database past after move 5) - Issue:  It seems that I cannot do this. Maybe it is based on 34. or maybe its just for premium members. I dont know.

[57. Social Butterfly (Have 100 friends) : Feel free to add me as a friend. wink.png]

68. Library Card (Read 100 articles) - Issue: I clicked on a lot of articles but I seem to do something wrong. Which ones do count and which dont?

68 and a half. 1st Lesson (You completed your first Lesson!) - Issue: I did and redid lessons but nothing happens. However I have this achievement: 69. Kindergarten (Complete your first lesson)

76. Chatterbox (Be #1 in the player community points list) Issue: I dont know exactly what to do.

83. TV Guide (Watch some chess tv) Issue: This one does not to work at all. I watch a show for at least 10 minutes and nothing happend.

I have a lot of the same issues, have you resolved any?

First:

Make sure you comment on the current daily puzzle.

Silicon Brain:

Go here for drills and attempt all of them. Don't worry about passing or failing. (silicon brain is premium only btw)

Second opinion/Hindsight 20/20:

Do a computer analysis and save the analysis. (saving is only available to premium I think)

Introspection:

1. Go to your archive

2. Click "Explore Games"

3. Click the moves on the right until you go past the 5th move (non-premium can only go to move 4)

Bring a friend/People Person:

I can't figure these out either. Let me know what you find.

Pack Leader:

Yes, this is only for premium.

Ballot Box:

Try doing that from this link

Library Card:

Some articles don't count, (like news for example) so try reading different kinds. Keep at it and you'll eventually get it.

1st Lesson:

I had this problem too. Play around with it and it will show up after a while.

Chatterbox:

Get 10,000 points to unlock this

TV guide/Couch Potato/TV Junkie:

Watch the WHOLE episode

Searching for Bobby Fischer:

1. Go to the explorer

2. Select others games

3. Search "Fischer"

If I watch the videos on "Lessons" do they help me get this achievement: "Popcorn Lover" ? I'm doing all lessons right now and I'm watching all the videos but nothing seems to happen

What about "Man vs Machine" - I have played heaps of bots in live chess but that achievement is never given to me?

I've went through the last 10 pages of your archive and don't see any bot opponents. I don't believe the bots under Play > Computer trigger that achievement yet, since that is the newer option.

Thank you for that clarification.  How do I play a bot opponent that would trigger that achievement?

I'm not sure which bots are still in Live ... most of them have been removed and at some point all of them will be.


Last I knew, some of the numbered Komodo bots were still there so you might be able to directly challenge one if you can find one that is still up. @Komodo1 through @Komodo20

 

Looks like the Komodo1 is still in live right now.
