Resolved: Live Chess Minimum rating setting

Sort:
Avatar of locator

My default for Live Chess minimum rating was -200.  My Live Chess rating hovers around 1350.  I decided that I wanted to play only players at my rating level or above.  So I changed my minimum setting to +1350.  However, instead of restricting my opponents to a rating of 1350 or above, I get matched up with opponents much lower - as low as 850.  Previously my lowest matches were just 200 points below me or higher.  Can someone tell me why this minimum rating isn't working for me?

Don't you need to change the minimum setting to say +1 or similar to ensure you get matched with higher rated opponents.

+1350 might be setting your minimum opponent to 2650 (your rating + another 1350) and screwing up the match-ups.

I'm not sure why, but it now works like I expected.  Perhaps chess.com needed a day to get their servers to set it right.
