Mahalo, looks and sounds goo, any in the improvement in the team area would be great! "Lots of other secret feature", hmmmm!

The feature which makes possible playing out the positions against the computer was much awaited and it's just great. Premium memberships really worth it...

Where is the finish game feature? I can't find it on my games.

Do you have any recent games that ended with a resignation?

At least for me it is near the other choices, such as computer analysis.

Any chance of live chess tournaments?

Thank you!  Smile

Play v Computer taught me today how even if I can figure out the appropriate tactical response, the computer can proceed to kick my ass on the next move.

Cool changes. 

As a suggestion i guess it would also be cool in live chess to appear somewhere what type of opening was used and what variation... it would help the begginers a lot.

i forgot, Live chess tournaments are a must.. i play on other site only for those quick coffee break tournaments.

there is no direct access path. that's like asking for the direct access path to the Computer Analysis link - there is one on every page. 

if you go to a game that did not end in checkmate or stalemate, you will see the link under COMPUTER ANALYSIS. 

if you go to TACTICS TRAINER, after you finish a tactic you will see the "Play Vs The Computer" link below it.

Glad I spotted this thread, Erik.

Earlier today, when I completed a game, I noticed Finish Game Vs. Computer and started to doubt the state of my brain. Could I really not have noticed it before??!

Anyway I tried it out to see how my game might have gone if I hadn't resigned (thinking there was no hope) and in fact the position wasn't as hopeless as I'd thought. This reminded me that I shouldn't give up too easily and it showed me that winning might have been possible.

Great feature.

Finish game vs. computer is present for some of my regular games, but not for team matches.

did your team matches end in checkmate? it should be ALL games that don't end in checkmate/stalemate. let me know...
