I also play on another site and really like the "Conditional Moves" feature. It allows you to set up conditional moves that will be triggered automatically in response to specific moves made by your opponent. I use it with obvious 1 or 2 mate moves or capture responses. Very nice time saving feature.

Conditional moves are AWESOME... just don't make them visible to your opponent like several sites do.

gameknot does not make them visible but the opponent is notified that a triggered move was made after they submit their move.

I agree, I really like the conditional move feature on Gameknot. However, I really can't wait for the tournaments! I'm most excited about that! HURRY UP ERIK lol.

maybe some conditional messaging too..  i'll throw in what i think what the next moves will be with some escalating conditional taunting.

1. saw that one coming

2. puuhhhleezee, like that's going to work

3. you see what you make me do!!

4. i'm in your head

5. go ahead go 6.Nxd5, i dare you

6. oh no, you didn't...

7. it puts the lotion in the basket

hilarious...but my foresight is so pathetic that any of my conditional taunting would soon be followed by an email saying: "Your game with ***** is over!"

I think it's already here because my opponent's on vacation and an option said 'Conditional Moves.' could that be for just when you or your opponent is on vacation though?
