In the "Vote Chess" page (as an example, http://www.chess.com/groups/votechess/team-italia for my group), we have a nice summary of the running games, but there is no indication of who's turn is it. With several games on going, this can easily get annoying.

I know we get an Alert every time it's our turn, but if we go to the game, start discussing the candidate move, and do not move immediately, the alert disappears.

Would it be possible to add a column, to the summary page, indicating who's turn is it?

I think that would be appreciated by a lot of people!

Thanks in advance for any feedback,

Andrea

I am thinking the same thing. It should stay in the alert box untill you have made a move.

I see there is no reply, so I'll try an alternative proposal... Wink

Would it be possible to modify the "Alert" window, in such a way not to remove a game from the list unless:

1) A move is made (i.e. it's now the opponent turn) OR

2) The "Ignore" button is pressed (so it is a conscious decision of the user to remove it from the watch list)?

I thank any admin/helper in advance for a reply!

i have suggested this in the system improvements thread so erik will have seen the idea. However he is very busy and this is a minor annoyance.

my idea was to modify the alert so that it only disappeared when you clicked ignore.
