How to turn off analysis engine

Sort:

I have sometimes been surprised when I go from our Vote Chess game to Master Database, then I want to look at a position from there.  But I turn into a cheater (and have to kick myself and resign all my positions) when I open the Analysis board and load the position.  Here is how to avoid it, while still using Analysis to look at the Master Games Database positions.

https://www.chess.com/analysis -> ⚙ -> Chess Engine -> Engine Off

1) https://www.chess.com/analysis

2) On a8 there is br.png and off the board there is ⚙ (Settings). (Maybe Black has captured a gear!)

3) Click the gear and it says Chess Engine and you pick Engine Off

After that we can happily use /analysis, if we want to, without cheating.

Yes. I think the site should keep track better and provide a default of no engine unless you overrule it.

Too many people using analyzer.  This is not how we should play a Chess game.
