I noticed after I finished a puzzle and left the tab open that the time was still going. I think I had something similar happen, but that other time, the score didn't really register or something went wrong with the puzzle itself. On this one everything worked fine and the rating was awarded, the timer just keeps ticking. It seems like it registered that I solved it in 42 seconds, but now it's at over 6 minutes

Hello! Can you please somehow improve the alert system? I, for example, publish important news in my team, but not all see it because of a bad system, or players just skip it because they are in many clubs and the messages are not filtered. Is it possible to add any sound notifications if it is an application? And pop-ups for computers? Just somehow I do not want to use other applications/messengers for notifications, and it will be created certain inconveniences for all participants. Thank you!
Fior example, (warning following the link could use your analysis quota), https://www.chess.com/analysis/game/live/3772034117 looks so:
I want to suggest bughouse tourneys because I find it very hard to find a partner and then find an oppnent. How it works: 1. Have more than 4 players players playing. 2. Let the computar make partners. 3. Play and have fun. Is this suggestion good? Regards, jm9966
The Analysis Report board Master name and Pawn avatar resolves to member Null. Makes me chuckle.

Bug: Comment Before edits at the start of a sub-line are not retained after saving. In my first foray into experimenting with the Self Analysis edit feature I encountered a bug. After adding a Comment Before in a sub-line starting with move 12: and saving the analysis the comment is missing upon revisiting the analysis Other edits were retained. It may be the comment is saved but the redisplay gets tripped up, or it just gets lost.

For games with a small number of moves you cannot scroll the screen down far enough to access these controls. They are hidden behind the floating Next /Previous Move / analysis bar This is on chrome on mobile, android

Hi, I noticed the Bullet Leaderboard widget on the homepage, and I noticed @Hikaru wasn't in the top five, so I was like, oh man, where did Hikaru go, so I clicked on the leaderboard. Hikaru is still the #1 bullet player (by far) but he's not on the widget: I don't know why this is (maybe the widget is programmed only to go up to 3300) but it probably should be fixed.

Is there a new layout to the home screen?

Sometimes when analyzing positions, I think it would be useful for the computer to tell you what the worst moves in that position are. So like you'd flip what the calculation is looking for with the idea being learning how to best punish blunders which sometimes aren't so obvious and may be useful when you're playing against people who aren't going to be playing a perfect move on every move.

When i got this puzzle wrong: i looked at the target time and it said 'NaN:an' Is this a glitch? Is it meant to happen What is Nan:an? Please tell me whats happening Thanks @NiceGarry
I find it quite interesting to try and find solid but more obscure openings, but finding GM games with them is difficult, since the drop down for the opening when searching someone's archive is difficult.Same applies for when I want to search for all my games with a certain opening in order to compile the most tricky responses I encountered.First of all it would be nice if the openings were sorted alphabetically instead of a random order, or maybe it's not random, but not very easy to find the one you want. And then it's a very limited selection, it doesn't have the English Defense, Budapest Defense, London, Owen Defense, Modern Defense etc. Maybe it could be have a list of the most popular ones, but below that a more detailed list with all of them, at least those that have an own name, or perhaps even a space where you can just type the ECO, or a mini board where you can make the first six moves or something or the FEN, so something similar like in the database.The database however does not have the GM games that were played here, and obviously none of those in my own archive, so it would be great to have the option to search your own or other's archives for a certain opening position

I had tactic #77196 in puzzle rush https://www.chess.com/puzzles/problem/77196/practice I played Qh3 with the idea Qg2# next move but I got it marked as wrong and got a strike. The solution it wants is to play Qg4+, Qg2#, but both Qg4+ and Qh3 are forced mate in 2, so both solution should be equal. I can understand why the engine would think one is better, but it really isn't, as it doesn't matter if I lose a knight mating in two moves or keep it and mate in two moves

When I chat with multiple people with the new chat feature, It's kind of irritating when I have multiple pages on and I open up a chat in one and it pops up in every single one like I was in live chat and I chatted 3 people and organised the chat boxes and then I went over to the other chess.com page I had opened up and it was a mess Note that it's the new topic page but originally it was a chess.com forum and it was a mess
