Become a member of sacrilege, the group behind Chess.com Ladder.
sacrilege is the oldest surviving club on Chess.com, made in May of 2007, the very month Chess.com itself launched, and the only club of that era never to fall silent.
Once upon a time, Chess.com Ladder was hosted on iCloud Notes. Not anymore.
Veterans are the original few, the patrons who paid to see that list while this project was in beta. They are honoured on our Ladder with a distinct highlight, and with certain Visionary perks.
Visionary is for those who want a bit more. It arrives monthly, newsletter-style. Not the original notes, but a separate iCloud note of extra data that never appears on this website, issued at the start of each month to everyone still a member: a July copy as July begins, an August copy as August begins.
To change your bio or hide your username, please message hopeless with the following commands: .hide to hide or unhide your username, .bio <bio> to change your custom bio or leave it blank to remove it. Bios can be at most 30 characters long. To redeem your Visionary or Donor statuses, type in the command .redeem <key>. Changes may take up to an hour to propagate.

Perks are non-transferrable and are permanently bound to the account with your tier. You should be sent an invite to sacrilege if you're not already in the club within 24 hrs. Your account will be removed from the club upon the lapsing of your subscription.
To set the email you'd like your monthly leads list to be sent to, first create an iCloud account under that email address, then type in .mail <email>. If your account is not already on the Ladder, it will be permanently added and tracked from now on, even if you're expelled from sacrilege.
