OK, That is all for now. Again, this is just a list I got together of major things I see!
I haven't seen anyone else post this - I have found that making moves today is incredibly slow. I have a fast connection and a very decent computer, yet it's creeping along on this site only.
<Fencer, I won game 382093 and got two messages 1000187 and 1000189 saying that i won. Looks like my BKR was raised twice as well (1820->1849 and 1849->1876). I know i shouldn't complain :) but a bug is a bug.
Fencer, is there a bug with the waiting games? Just wondering because i've posted several new games and i know from asking that they do not show up as waitng.
I've been on and off for the last 7 hours and haven't had any trouble until just a few minutes ago....the dreaded white screen. But I like the new BK 2!!! Thanks Fencer and Liquid!
Not sure if it's a bug, or something that is not turned of fully yet, but I'll post just in case you don't know about it.
1) It took about an 1 1/2 hours before the tournaments I created (and then set time for already expired) to leave the "sign up" sheet and go to the waiting state. (So question is if that process runs every hour, or if it's on a difference scedule right now.)
2) All the tournaments that went to the waiting period about 2 hours ago are still in the waiting status.
Again, I'm just posting to make sure you do know about this issue. Thanks.
Since I create a lot of tournaments, this probable effects me the most - but when I use to create new tournaments, after I created it, it would go right to the newly created tournament. (Which is good so I can check to make sure I set everything up correctly).
Now when I set up a new tournament, it sends me back to the tournament list - then making me go back into the tournament to then check.
Anyway, just curious if this is a known change, or possible a bug or something - but it is really nice to be able to easly check all the settings, date, number of players, etc.... right away.
Fencer, there's one other small bug I just noticed. When you choose "move and go to message box" it doesn't! it leads you to the main page. Maybe it doesn't work for other options properly either. i didn't check
One other tiny bug - connected to the red numbers on the menu but a slight variation - when you delete a message without reading it, it still shows that you have a new message.
All archived games are listed as having one more move then they actually had. See how on my game list line4 games are listed as having 33 moves, which is impossible.
Yea, it's not a big deal - BUT it also gave me the "null" along with an end of game message, so it will actually affect everyone - but again, nothing that hurts anything since if you click on "null", it still sends you to the correct tournament.
In my message box, I had a few messages - about tournaments next rounds, ect....
In each case, it said the tournament was called "null" - But it does link to the correctly named tournament Also for the game over message, it shows the tournament as "null"
(hide) When moving in a game you can choose which one will show up next by selecting the appropriate option in the list next to the submit button. (pauloaguia) (show all tips)
