I was doing tactics, and then I got THIS puzzle.

The puzzle was just the starting position. Also, note the time I took to solve this puzzle. Has this happened to anyone else?

25871992:57 minutes = 49 years

How or why did you take 49 years to solve that puzzle?!

I created my account 1 year ago. Chess.com started about 15 years ago. 49 years is probably the time from Jan 1, 1970.

Or it is the overflow that comes from treating an unsigned integer as a signed integer.  Or both.

Or maybe that is the total aggregate training time of every user on chess.com!?

This a crazy bug!

Same here, on a phone, but what's more crazier is that the puzzle was actually white to move, but I was given the black pieces (The blacks pieces were on my side) Also, where's the timer? Is it not appearing to us because it's being fixed?

Avatar of edr0nt

Just got the same thing again

What?

Your phone might be lagging a lot, or someone could have hacked the puzzle, or chess.com is going crazy with your account. Can you give us the ID?

Im experiencing countless problems with tactics trainer lol...

the rating changes itself, gotta retry the puzzle unrated to get it fixed.

  1. No, it wasn't
  2. Very less chance
  3. Since it's happening to many people, nope
  4. Since I've done a lot more tactics after those 2, I don't have the ID sorry
