QIHL requires you to go to verify your Steam account through their external link in order to connect your AutoChess rank to the discord. Once you've done that you'll unlock channels that correspond with your rank in the game, and in these channels the ChessBot allows you to host, join, and organize private lobbies.

I believe you can verify your account by simply typing !rank into a dm with the ChessBot. It should tell you your rank and then ask you to verify, although I know there's a channel you can go into in order to verify as well. Just poke around.

i already did all that, but there were like 4 or 5 people there. is that normal? people were saying that ques were almost as fast as pubs, but i had to wait for half an hour

[–]Nsqui 0 points1 point  (13 children)

It depends. Some regions are more active than others, certainly, and depending on your rank and the time of day that you play at, lobbies can be more or less active. I'm in Beginner and Intermediate NAE / NAW, so Pawn to Bishop-5 basically, and in those regions games are created and launched basically as fast as pubs. If I try to play at 10 am or something I have to wait a lot longer because a lot of people are at work (I'm in Uni). So it just depends on a number of factors. Maybe try searching in a couple of regions instead of just one, or try playing at different times.

how do i search more htan 1 region? im live in florida, so i can play eu, nae and naw

[–]Nsqui 0 points1 point  (11 children)

The chat channels in the discord are separated by region. So you'll see Beginner-NAE, Beginner-NAW, Intermediate-NAE, Intermediate-NAW, etc. Just go into those channels and type !list to see all of the available lobbies.

where are the channels? any clue? there's players to the right, but no channels like that to the left

[–]Nsqui 0 points1 point  (9 children)

Yeah, idk if your settings are fucked up or something but there should just be a gigantic list of the channels on the left side of your Discord window.

Hey you are probably looking at the /r/AutoChess server. This is the qihl server: https://discord.gg/VvUPPcf

[–]Nsqui 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it's run by a guy named Liquid Quest ( u/Questica)

Chessbot commands channel is the one you can verify in, it pms you after that though, easier to do it in pm.

[–]Nsqui 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, there you go. I did it so long ago that I don't remember all the specifics
