The Bug Thread

You mean hide a player that resigned ahead of turn from spectators till his turn is reached? The bottom arrow I don't get.

How is that doubledecker atomic setup working btw? Does is make for good 4 player atomic games?

It works nice, there were no quick checkmates in the last 2 games. I can give you links for all Double Decker Atomic games. Maybe +20 pts for checkmate is so much

Yes, I mean that. If a player resigned before his turn, other players must to unsee this

I don't get it. And don't see what you'd want to change. the rule is if you can't move there, it's fogged.

Example game:

use the "insert image" button which looks like a photo

You are saying, a pawn that can be captured en passant should always be visible?
I'm not sure tbh, I don't quite see why.

Players can only see the squares to which their pieces can legally move to.

Challenge

There is a bug in Chaturanga games, sometimes declared 'draw' by the system when they are not.

Example: https://www.chess.com/variants/chaturanga/game/15908228

This game is clearly lost for me, my opponent is going to bare my King whatever I do. So I resigned but the system says Draw (insuff. material) 

Here also: I won this one but the system says Draw (insuff. material) 

https://www.chess.com/variants/chaturanga/game/16080272/149/1

It is not like modern Chess, here a knight is one of the strongest pieces on the board, it is huge to declare the game drawn when one is a full horse ahead. Anyway the rules described are different from the rules applied, so I think some fix is needed.

Yes, it mustn't be draw because ...

resign always lose

I'm not sure that 'resign always lose' if your opponent has insufficient material to mate...

However the fact is that doesn't exists any 'insufficient material' in Chaturanga:

-- K vs K is an immediate draw;

-- K+any vs K is a win (unless the underdog can get the above situation at the very next move).

i really would like to know when the leaderboard in variants will be back

it has been missing for the last few days and it really is annoying not having it

also i have been looking around on this thread and no one seems to say anything about it

The leaderboard is now back for the happiness of many.

The Chaturanga bug however is not fixed yet and that's causing me depression.

I would love if the Gothic Chess notation, both on the panel in-game and in downloads, was fixed.

Fog Of War seems to have a strange icon connected to my king. Somtimes it is on the peice other times it is a number of squares away - but it rotates opposite to my king when I move my king, Not sure what it is for but it is really distracting...

That's in ALL variants, read and comment here, please: https://www.chess.com/forum/view/chess-variants/random-flower-things

Thanks for that.
A short and pointless detour from the topic I raised.
