Ok, so up till now i have played lot's of chess games in chess.com  more than 13k blitz games since 2011. 

when i try to view my openings stats in game explorer and see what openings i should work the hardest i notice there are only a few hundreds of games archived in game explorer :( 

what's wrong? why can't i find all of my games over there?

Very few players have their live games up to date in Game Explorer. 

There are numerous threads explaining why they fell behind several years ago once thousands of people started playing millions of live games and their servers were overwhelmed.

I understand that they will take another crack at it once V3 is finalized.

Thanks. I hope they will get it right at V3 :P

I have great news - I have found a way. Trying every venue where it made sense, I eventually received one response -

 

"Probably what you are seeing is that we do not automatically load all of the Live Chess games into explorer for all players. This would be billions of games, and most people do not use this feature extensively. There is a way to get on the list so that your games are available: visit the explorer page in v3. First, click the "Try the new Chess.com" link at the bottom of this page, and then go to "Explorer" under the "Learn" menu. When you do, you won't see your games right away, but they should all be ready within a few minutes and each game that you finish after that should be added within an hour or two of the game finishing."

And I did do that.

And it worked exactly as described!
