Vote chess - how to go through variations in v3

I still have no clue about how to analyze the variations in v3.

In v2 I was used to copy the pgn of another player and put in my own analysis, variation and comments. If I try this in the "analysis"-section I get a warning-sign a la

----------------------------------------------

WARNING

Analysis cannot be performed on this position because it matches one of your games in progress. Return to analyze your game after it is over.
----------------------------------------------
This of couse would make sense, if there was no way to switch of a computer analysis (which was not possible for a while and I don't participated in the game I played after finding this out because it would have been cheating). sad.png
 
But there still seems to be no option to answer to a diagram like this (using the pgn, posting my own lines and comments inside and post it again), is there?

Ah, and just to clarify: The example is an old, archived game.

In V3 they have added stockfish to use with completed games to analyze your moves. It will not allow you to use the engine enabled analyze board for on going games. You may have to wait until the personal game is complete before you can analyze that position. If you feel there is a problem you can contact support @

Yes, thank you Commander_Riker, but in vote chess I have to analyze a game myself (without the help of the computer of course) and go through various lines. In v2 this was easily done - but the analysis board provided in the vc game (the one on the right side of the screen) doesn't do the job: I need to commend the variations, so that others can see what I was thinking when I recommended this or that side variation (as in the diagram above). This is especially true, when I have to copy the variation and comments of another player of my team and commend those.

Without that feature vc looses a lot of fun for me. It's a plattform where we learn from each others' thoughts. :/

 

And please do not hesitate to ask for more clarification if I made something unclear - I am no native english speaker as you may see... cry.png
