Time not stopping after solving puzzle

Sort:
Avatar of Chessbovine

I noticed after I finished a puzzle and left the tab open that the time was still going. I think I had something similar happen, but that other time, the score didn't really register or something went wrong with the puzzle itself. On this one everything worked fine and the rating was awarded, the timer just keeps ticking.

It seems like it registered that I solved it in 42 seconds, but now it's at over 6 minutes

Should be called the Steve Miller Bug: Time keeps on slippin, slippin, slippin into the future

I think I am too song to get that reference. I know who Steve Miller is but never listened to the music.

Did this only happen once or has it happened several times?

Apart from the other incident a while back where something went weird with the points, this is the only one so far, at least the only one I noticed

The Steve Miller song is "Fly Like an Eagle!"

If you are not use to the Steve Miller genre, try out ''Take The Money And Run'' for starters.

This issue is still happening. Time keeps on...well, you know, into the future. Also, I am losing a lot of rating points but I think that's just me...lol.

Have you checked your settings?

I see one of your recent puzzles has this data (this is the longest time spent, most of the times are low). So you got 6 points despite taking 10 times the target time! I am surprised by that for a problem that is only 100 points or so higher-rated than yourself.

Elroch: I wonder if in your chess.com My Time investigations have come across a time that can top mine:

I can say with confidence I never have! 

I suspect the points awarded are for the correct time. The curious thing is that seems to only happen sometimes to some people.

Keep up the good work! But if you do come across longer than 189:05 I wish that you would message me. Thanks!
