Official Tournament Registration

Good night, I can not register for official tournaments, the message appears:> 20% s matches worth points, can anyone tell me what this means and how I can register in these tournaments?
The rule is that you must play 20 rated games before you enter a tournament. This is to prevent people making new accounts to enter tournaments, and ensuring that the person knows their way around the site (and the chessboard) before they try their chances in a tournament. So, if you want to play in a blitz tournament, play 19 more rated games.
Eventually I'd like to see that 20-game limit reduced so the site is more accessible to new players.
