Hello, I played 3 daily games last month, won all 3 of them, but I did not receive any ELO points. Is the game broken or am I doing something wrong, please? I start the games as usual via new game -> 1 day.
Simultaneously I play one unrated daily game with my friend, but all the others were started normally via new game -> 1 day on mobile.

They were all unrated games. If you read the instructions, you will perhaps understand better how to choose a rated or unrated game.

thx for info. However, I don’t like the fact that I changed the “not rated” option once for the custom game challenge, but it was saved also for all other games started from the normal “play game” menu and ONLY for daily chess - my blitz games were rated as usual, so I had no idea that option is applied only to some of them and is saved also for all other daily games (not just the single challenge). I played all other games from the normal “play game” regime. It is really weird that this option is “saved” also for different menu/categories. This is honestly terrible UX/design - at least on mobile devices.

btw I ofc did everything as it says in the tutorial, my problem is that the setting from one custom challenge applies to “all games, but not really all games” and I have no way to see it - as I described in the previous post. Thx anyway
