Chess.com Feature Request and Wishlist #4

bughouse chess~~ :D

His name does say divine, so that lends some credibility but all the same, I'm not buying it.

When I request computer analysis I get a nice little table showing a count of my inaccuracies, mistakes and blunders.  It would be great if I got the same for my opponent right beside it.

If that crown next to your name is to be believed, you've already bought it.

Can you show a person's best draw stat

My rating is 1320 and my best win is 1608, but my best draw is 1812.

 Thanks for everything uv done for this site,

On the interactive maps it would be cool to have an option for "Everyone I've Ever Played"

I agree with TheGrobe. That would be great.

yea chess.com..cheers

CC CHESS CHAT BOX : SUPPORT FOR HYPERLINKS

The turn-based chess chat box supports only plain text. I quite often paste in HTML links (mainly to forum topics but also to site FAQs and games). Currently, the other person has to copy these out & paste them into a browser. It would make for a smoother experience if these links could be instantiated directly i.e. clicking on them opened a browser window.

OK, this is a simple request.

On the Tactics Trainer for nonpaying members, allow 3 puzzles per day regardless of when they occur in the day, instead of having to wait 24 hours to play again.  In other words, reset the number at midnight.  That way, if I play my three puzzles late one evening, I can do the next day's puzzles earlier in the day, instead of having to wait until the second day.

I think that might pose a time-zone problem.  It sounds like the way it works right now is on a rolling 24 hour basis -- i.e. no more than three puzzles within the last 24 hours?

This isn't a feature request so much as an information request.  I think it would be great if there was a News item where release notes were published for each release.   Basically a running list of releases with the detail of what was inside of each one.  This would help members to quickly navigate to any new functionality and provide some insight to when certain key issues get resovled.

I've seen it done for a couple of releases in the forums, and perhaps I've just missed it for others, but if this were in a news item that could be pushed onto the main page when there's a release it would be much easier to get some visibility into what has changed (plus maybe I'll stop asking for stuff that's already been implemented).

A workaround that you can use is Google’s site search. Google for

    “by paul211” site:www.chess.com/forum

This will return a list of pages containing your contributions. Each page contains 20 or so posts (depending on length).

Alternatively, consult the list of Topics I have Posted In, wade through each topic, noting the post number and page number of each of your contributions (or use the URL from the browser’s address box). This is laborious, but you need create the index once only, provided you maintain it contemporaneously thereafter.

TALLY: Forum Annoyances  (post #16)

There are times when I use many separate re-playable boards in a single post.  It would be useful on occasion to be able to have just ONE board with a drop down menu to pick games.

I've seen software that does this, and I think it would be a nice addition to Chess.com (especially for news items which can get a bit unwieldy with lots of game boards displayed).

I would like to see chess.com make girls like me...

How about a customizable main page for premium members.

For instance, I don't need Vote Chess, Opening of the Day, Surveys or Site Stats,

But i would like to see more of my own content, maybe ready games and more forums stuff. Also maybe games that I have just had analyzed.

Im not sure but there is a lot of possibility for this. Google's ig is what I imagine.

I would like to be able to throw some clocks up there so I can see what time it is for my opponents.

For non members you could have some fixed blocks of advertising, so that although they would have some options to customize, they would also look at more ads.

Finally, for those who like it the way it is right now, you would not have to change it.

my suggestion is to fix live chess.

before the turn of the year, i could go on live chess as much as i wanted and not get dced. however this is no longer possible as everytime i go on live chess i get dced. i know that i haven't changed any of my internet settings which leads me to believe that chess.com have changed live chess in a way which has worsened it for many UK players. i hope that this can be sorted ASAP because i just want to play some chess again

Game Explorer Stats:

The statistics displayed appear to be based on those games where a move was made from the current position instead of to the resulting position.  The result is that transpositions are not included in the statistics until you click through. 

You can tell when this is the case because the number of games on the page for the resulting position is larger than the number of games displayed on that stats for the move that got you there from the previous position.

I think it would be better if the stats showed the outcome from all games that arrived in the resulting position irrespective of whether they got there through the position you are currently viewing.

how about having a link to go from your position in a game strait away to the game explorer? it could be nice to see if there are games that took the same path as yours...

This has been the subject of many discussions - including this one ...
