Inquiries regarding diamond membership

Sort:
Nine-point-Circle

1) After getting 1 month of diamond membership, I got to play more bots. If my diamond membership expires when I am halfway through a game with a (previously locked) bot, can I continue the game (if I don't renew my diamond membership)?
2) If I took a lot of lessons (for example, 100) during this month, will I be able to view those lessons after my diamond membership has expired?

I don’t know for 1, but I assume 2 is something you can do

If you have an active bot game when your membership expires I'm pretty sure you'll be able to finish it. You may not get any crowns for it, though I'm not sure on that.

Doing lessons does not permanently unlock them.

You keep the crowns but the bots will be locked if you become basic again.

My membership has ended now. I can still view the game but I cannot move any of my pieces.

All the crowns that I got for beating the beginner and intermediate bots that were previously locked have also disappeared.

Can a staff member create a game for me? I am currently in this position. (My opponent is the Miguel bot and I am playing with the white pieces.)

They should still be counted but since they are locked you may not see them.

It's possible I was wrong and the bot becomes locked and you won't be able to continue.
