1 st stalemate should get more points in Antichess. https://www.chess.com/4-player-chess?g=3554655

When making a premove, if the game ends before your move turn comes up again (like say if someone gets checkmated in teams), there are ghost "premove color" squares that show up in your next game corresponding with the premove from the finished game, which clicking won't remove, but they disappear automatically after your first move. Not a huge issue, but I thought this deserved reporting if it isn't already known. I'm not sure if they only show up when you are the same color in both games, that may be a possibility.

That has happened to me! I did not know it was a bug, and did not report, sorry.

  • Blocking is no longer respected for Variant games (except teammates in teams games). The player pool for such games is too small, which leads to "discrimination" issues. (For example, some players block all strong opposition, effectively preventing the blocked players from getting a game started.)



no blocking in tournament or anonymous games either (has been like that for a long time)

I agree with vio.

I-I_I-I

 I had been haunted for more than 4 months by a crazy mad that had opened multiple new accounts each day only to hurt my score with his 1500 points new account

Report them, and set a rating range like 1550+

> By not allowing blocking, you encourage : cheaters , bullying , bad chat , players that abandon games , crazy people who haunt others as i said at point 1) , and other bad behavior/things...

Report.

> Why you have the blocking if it is not active 

For popular games like standard FFA / Teams where blocking doesn't hurt much.

 

In the not-so-popular variant games, blocking can easily be abused by blocking every strong players to only play with those you can beat, and to farm rating.

Also note that it's possible that you get paired with a blocked user in 2pc tournaments.

tacticspotter

so blocking is not possible in variant to prevent blocking all those high rated players to just farm for points?

  all blocks, except for teammate blocking in a team, are harmful for the development (relative to usual chess) of a small game pool like 4pc. using anonymous games is more efficient than blocking haters

Bots will resign if no humans are left in the game. (you can invite 4 bots on the test server chess.com/4pc-test, they won't resign there..)

who are you answering? 

spacebar

you.

@diduseethatcomeing we are aware the lastmove colors don't work well for all colors, please don't post twice. may add an option rather than automatically derive from users piece color settings.

The high rated farmers who block all strong competition are the problem.

The blocked players effectively never get a chance to play the variant, given the farmer is sitting in the queue all day long waiting for newbies.

You never specified a bug, you just pasted a link and hoped someone would take the time to figure out what you are talking about. Please take the time to write a detailed description of the expected behavior \ the bug behavior and how to reproduce the bug. The developer has better things to do than try to figure out what you are referring to say by pasting a link.
