The challenges probably stayed even when their ratings rose or fell. Otherwise it's unlikely that there's a glitch in the challenge settings.
I have set my challenge settings to accept games from players between 1200 to 1500, yet I get lots of invites from players under 1200 and higher than 1500! I wonder why is that?

Originally posted by coquetteOne of the primary reasons why I stopped offering open invites was due to the fact my challenge settings never seemed to work there...challenge me directly and you wouldn't succeed unless 1900+ rated, but I had literally anyone picking up my open invites...no idea why, I always assumed it was my error 'somewhere' but I do wonder.

Originally posted by jankrbThanks, I suspected that. But if thats the case, why is that even offered? I mean it lets you set your challenge rating, does it not? There is nowhere that says in order to set this challenge rating you need to be a subscriber.
