I have set my challenge settings to less than 1000 and more than 700. However, i keep getting games with players with settings well over 1000. What is up with that? and how can I go about setting my settings?

Rating limits should work, but if you get a game you don't want to play just click the trash can.

Are these games where someone has sent you a personal specific challenge game?

If you picked them up from the open invite list, I don't think your personal rating limits will prevent you from accepting an open invite game that does not specify rating limits, even if the opponent rating is outside of your challenge limits.

On the challenge settings page, did you click the "update" button at the bottom of the page after you entered your rating limits? If you do not update your settings they will not register.

Before you do that you should look at your prospective opponent's rating to see if it is too high or low for you.

Love the avatar, but don't you think you're feeding the troll? He must be loving the attention he's getting.

Seconded. Fired it up for the first time (GB never bothered me that much) and life is peaceful again! Orangutan deserves an award for community benefit.

Well-deserved! But I think he'd rather have a banana.

GB had more class than all the posters here put together.

I never saw him wear a hate sign either, how childish~!
