Hey all!
Forgive me if this has already been asked or if I'm being dense somehow...
But I just accepted my first invite to play. The person who invited me has not responded after I accepted the challenge, but I have been assigned to play black.
While looking at the board... trying to figure out how things here on Chess.com work, I noticed that whites queen is missing?
There IS a difference in our ratings... of upwards of several hundred points...and the player who is playing white has the higher rating... but that does not explain why his/her? queen is missing.
Is this some setting I don't know about? Some sort of, for lack of a better word, handicap?
Or is this some sort of glitch?
Has anyone else seen this?
Can anyone tell me what is going on?
Added a screen grab to show you what I mean...

Apparently your opponent challenged you to a custom game without their queen.
