Okay, I guess I'm just really stupid, but I didn't know that the "conditional moves" option would actually make the moves for you in a real game. I just thought it was for our own reference. So if there is anybody else out there that didn't read the directions for the conditional moves, now you know.

No, you're not stupid -- you've never used them before.  So, its a learning experience -- were you shocked when you saw that indeed those moves were made?  You will come to appreciate the conditional moves, they are a big help.

It sure is a timesaver. I set up the line that I think is most probable, do other stuff, and It's not actually my move again for a while. I love this feature, and would like to really thank Erik for introducting it... Though I agree, it needs something to tell you what it does before you put a line in there thinking it's notes of what Not to do.

I agree. The conditional moves were a great idea.


As an aside, if you guys want to see how things might play out, the analysis board (under the details tab beside your game) is great for that as well.  Keep up the good work, chess.com
