I didn't receive the e-mails. This forum is probably the best way to reach me, but I'll check into the e-mail issue.

What makes you think they are the same person? Multiple accounts aren't banned, but multiple entries into the tournament are.

There's a limitation of the time display on the game page, when the time remaining has more than 8 digits (in seconds). If you look at your "all my games" page, you'll see your opponent actually has more than 100 days of time remaining. So I do need to do something about the display making it look l...

Can you provide the game ID of one.

The current rule is that timeouts under 10 moves won't count as a win, but still count as a loss. The reasoning being that a lot of people sign up and only make a few moves and disappear, so rating such games just inflates everyone's rating. And if you actually beat someone in under 10 moves, you pr...

Hmm, the move button is never disabled. You can also submit your move by clicking on the move field and pressing enter. You might also click the "My Profile" link from the home page and change your interface preference to see if a different interface works.

It falls under the category of "annoying behavior", the penalty is up to the TD. The recommendation is a warning the first time. I've never had a player do it in any of my OTB tournaments, nor even heard of it happening. I imagine if the apparent goal was to annoy the other player, it would be loss ...

Congratulations to ramawolf and rosenmud! There are still some games left, but they have won enough to ensure a tie for first place.

Should be good now. Thanks for pointing it out.

The 2023 Net-Chess Open will start Feb 5. See signup page for details.

It is ready now.

Details are on the Tournament Page

I didn't get to start round 3 as previously scheduled, it will start on Oct 16.

Round 3 of the 2022 Net-Chess Open will start on Oct 9

g3 wasn't played in that game, g4 was played though. Looking at the logs, I see "g4" is the move submitted by your browser.

The ladder had been gone for quite a while, there just wasn't enough interest to justify the effort involved.

A theoretically drawn game is a game where checkmate is impossible, such as KN vs K, KN vs KN is not theoretically drawn. The "50 moves without a pawn push or capture" and the "three move repetition" are the ways to end a game that are drawn in practice.

Players are generally entitled to play out drawn or even obviously lost games. Once you get to a three move repetition, 50 moves without a capture or pawn push, or a theoretical drawn position, a draw can be declared. A "block" feature really only works on blitz sites where you play one game at a ti...

2022 Net-Chess Open Round 2 will start on Jun 12

The website should work fine on any mobile device. Is there something you can't do on your phone?

The 2022 Net-Chess Open will start Feb 6. Join on the tournament page.

Congratulations!

It should work now, thanks for the heads up.

If you have one of the old interfaces selected, it should display the old interface now. But still working on the issue of editing the preferences.

I'm working on it. Sorry for the inconvenience.

This should be fixed. Thanks for pointing it out.

This should be fixed now, let me know if it isn't. Thanks for pointing it out.

2021 has been added, thanks for the reminder.

Looks like you weren't logged in when you tried to join and there was an error redirecting you to the login page. I've fixed it. Thanks for pointing it out.

What issues were you having?

On the new interface it shows up at the top.

Some year, I hope to make it to round 2.

Round 3 of the 2021 Net-Chess Open will start Oct 17

I wrote them that way to save on bandwidth back when that was a problem, I couldn't afford it otherwise.

You're the only one who's reported it, possible others have had it and not said anything. At this point, you might want to just type "b2b1=Q" into the move box to make your move. I'll keep looking into it, but I don't think it's going to get solved anytime soon since I can't cause the problem myself.

Ok, made another change, give it another try.

Give it a try now. It still looks like a double click, and I can't reproduce the problem, but I think at least it'll ignore it now.

Can you check the Javascript console for an error like you did above?

Round 2 of the 2021 Open will start June 13

Thanks, it looks like they've been missing since 2018, I've restored them from backup.

Thanks. I'll see if I can account for that when people do it.

Are you double clicking the piece you select to promote to? You should just single click.

When viewing the game, can you press "ctrl+shift i". This will bring up the "developer tools", click on the tab that's labeled "console", then try to make your move. Let me know if anything appears in the console log.

Unfortunately "Google" isn't a browser. I'm not able to reproduce that issue in any browser I try. You can still make the move my typing c7c8=Q into the move box. If you can try to figure out which browser and version you're using, it might help me fix it for future instances.

Using the new interface you should get a popup to select what piece to promote to. What game is it? What browser are you using?

A new board interface has been in beta for about 3 years now, users have been able to select it under their profile as the "Experimental" interface. In the next few weeks, the new interface will become the default (for anyone having their preferences set to "Auto"). A link to see what the new interf...

You don't really close your account, just don't start any new games.

I didn't realize it was Super Bowl Sunday. Now you'll have something to do at half time.

See the tournament page to join.
