I can't seem to find any option to open or join a teamgame, how does this work?

siluriun

you can play 4 player chess and team up with someone 

Lexhibition

Will that count towards the achievement(s)?

Join a club at “Connect > Clubs”. On the club’s home page, you should see options for Daily Matches and Vote Chess.

Yes, vote chess is an achievement. But teamplayer and teampillar achievements, how are they achieved?

Team Player - You played in a daily team match.

Team Pillar - You played in 10 team matches.

That's what it says when you click on it, yes. But where do I join a daily team match? I can't find it anywhere.

Also, I see that you have the achievement Hindsight 20/20, how did you manage that one? I analysed loads of games (short, medium and long) and stil didn;t get it.

You belong to two clubs. If you go to their home pages, you should see a link for “Daily Matches”. That link will display a list of open daily team matches that you can join for your rating.

For Hindsight 20/20, I don’t know what kind of analysis it refers to. My guess is computer analysis (as opposed to self analysis).

Thank you for your help and the answer happy.png

With Hindsight 20/20 I also tried selfanalysis, for over 20 times from the beginning to the end. Every other computer variant at least 10 times. It is a total mystery that completely eludes me. Think I will ask someone from chess.com if this is bugged right now.

If you click on the padlocks in the box it will tell you what it's for happy.png

I know. It says 'you had 10 games analysed'. I analysed way more than that and in every possible way. So why didn't I earn the achievement?

With a lot of the achievements the 'explanation' of how to get them is quite vague. I.e. the searching for Bobby Fischer achievement, you need to search in a very specific spot, which I didn't find for days.

How do I join open team matches? There is no join button when I click on them?

Your rating has to be in the range of the match. And the match can't be in progress. Otherwise the join button will not be displayed. A club might not have any open matches at the moment.
