We have decided that we are going to remove the solve 100 puzzles sub-category in the puzzle rush category

Reason 1: No one has even speedran it yet

Reason 2: Not even advanced player have completed 100 puzzles yet unless they used stockfish

Thank you,

Long

By request, the mods have added 3 subcategories to the misc section. The categories include:

Lose% - Get checkmated by Martin (or other bot with elo 250 or less)

Gambit all pieces - Lose all pieces to Martin (or other bot with elo 250 or less)

50MoveDraw% - Draw using the 50-move rule to any bot

If you are interested, please give the runs a try so we can gauge interest. Any feedback is also appreciated. Thanks!

By request, the mods have added 2 categories of computer bot speedruns that don't require a chess.com premium membership. We hope this addition allows more runners to participate in the bot speedruns. Make sure you check the rules for this category to ensure you are playing against the right bots. Thanks!

We have a new verifier, jlp_joker1 (or JordanPio#5379 on discord) and kingofgames ( or Nyan Cat#8733 on discord) has been promoted from verifier to moderator! I'll probably have more of these in the future, and for all of you that don't know we have a discord server, so if you have any questions about any runs or just if you want to talk about chess join our server! Verifiers and mods are chosen on activity, so when we see people caring about the community and helping out we are much more likely to give verifier.
