You can't do anything in Forums for some reason except for posting quotes of other people and creating forums. Requote if you have the same problem

When clicking the post button in the forum , I am asked if I want to leave the site. Choosing "leave" seems to erase my post. Cancel is the other option. It does nothing.
Perhaps wrong forum, but this is in the new analysis page so I thought it should appear here. What is the difference between "Best Move" and "Brilliant" when performing analysis. Better yet, is there someplace where i can view the definitions of all the categories? I did an analysis a few days ago, and one of my moves was supposedly brilliant though for the life of me, I cannot say why. I do like the new analysis though, it really helps. Especially the retry, almost like a puzzle to get the perfect moved. FX

Hi everyone, Just a quick report, is it possible to switch the accept/refuse rematch button ? I just played with someone, we both wanted av rematch and clicked almost at the same time on rematch, result : one propose the rematch and half a second later the other refuse because the " X " is at the same position as " rematch " Best regards, Aladdin Von Sane

So, if you complete a tactic trainer puzzle correctly, you can click the retry button and do it again, and if you get it correct, it will show that you gained rating (again). However, your real rating remains unchanged. Not sure if it is a serious bug though.

When analyzing a game, it shows a magnifying glass icon next to your move and the best move that lets you follow the line, which is nice. However looking through the line of the best move more often than not leads to a horrible evaluation and includes inaccuracies and blunders the closer you get to the end of the line. Shouldn't they be the best moves? I understand that the initial depth towards the end gets lower compared to the depth that analyzes each move, but then maybe the two top moves shown that let you explore the lines need to be calculated to as deep as the line and the "regular" depth added to that depth, so that reaching the line still displays the best moves. For example in this game: https://www.chess.com/de/live/game/3520353612 Actually something even weirder just happened. On move 15. I played Qh4+ and it showed it as my only mistake and said that Qc7 was best. I went through that line and it ended horrible, so I started writing this thread, wanted to go back to write the evaluation number that the mistake and best line end up as, but now, well, take a look I mean, I wouldn't mind if my opponent took his own queen with his bishop, but I'm not sure that's how it works... After refreshing I was able to run it again. The mistake line leads to +0,86, the best line leads to -4,99 but that's because the last move is a giant blunder that loses the rook for a pawn and the engine shouldn't include moves like that in an evaluation line

In some puzzles, the "opponent" is using every desperate move to prolong not getting mated. It's most visible in the back rank mates where all possible covers are played. Once the correct first move is played, the only way to fail those problems is to missclick, because those captures are so obvious. Could the problem end earlier maybe? As an example, https://www.chess.com/puzzles/problem/135071 could easily finish after the first move.

In this analysis, 17. bxc5 is not showing up as a blunder. I noticed it when I was trying to find the turning point of the game. ...come to think of it, none of White's moves are showing up as mistakes or blunders. Does it only show your own?
How about you customize your own chessboard and pieces? Huh? Suggestion? LOL?!

I solved a 1300 rated tactic today, and I lost seventeen rating points because I took too long to do it (I guess?) This must be an error in the Speed Bonus (which used to be the percent solved) calculation

Since the new lessons had been launched in chess.com BETA, the pieces are currently moving on their own. For example, the queen moves sideward for a little bit like a 0.1 centimiter then it moves back to the original position not only one do this but 3 or more!!!!!!!! Can you pleaase fix this bug it's really BUGGING me. LOL no serious please fix this bug!!!

The post game screen sometimes seems really inconsistent with the actual analysis. It shows 1 mistake, 1 blunder and 1 missed win. It also says great Comeback. Looking at the analysis however shows 0 mistakes and 0 blunders, and the biggest advantage white had was +0,47 so it seems weird to rate it as a comeback. That's about the advantage that white starts at in the starting position. Lastly, it's probably because I suck at chess, but I don't understand that missed win at all. My move does waste time and after the best line, there is a considerable advantage for black, but no inevitable mate or the start of a mating net, so I'm not sure what I'm missing here or if that missed win label is faulty. Here is the game and the missed win at move 9. https://www.chess.com/live/game/3524437380
Shot below is of last puzzle followed by presentation of the puzzle when I tried to review it. Not the error in the presentation as it presents from White's perspective.
In a few of my bullet games, I premoved Nfd7 but Nbd7 was actually played. It hasn't happened to me yet but I've also heard of something similar happening with rooks. I can link to a few of the games if you want.
