New Features & Fixes - Oct 27 2010

I like the new features, awesome job.

No, they did not.  Here is one example:

http://www.chess.com/echess/game.html?id=41560053

My most recent game that is not a team match is available for finish game v. computer, but my team matches are not.  Most of my games are team matches, as black knight really runs us ragged on Team 54.  (Sorry for the shameless plug.)

Chess.com is one of the best things  that ever happened to me!!!  T/Y.

Every time I play tactics against the computer, and make a move it just keeps saying "Your turn" without moving.

When you next go into computer chess, look on the bottom right corner of your monitor. Click on the java icon then Open Control Panel.

Once this is open, use the bottom box where it says 'Settings'  - when that new box opens, click where it says 'delete files'.
Then OK

Once you've done this, refresh the page.

Bump.

Still having problems gaining access to this feature.  Kohai, if your reply was intended for me, I'm confused, as I don't see any java icon available when viewing or playing CC.

As soon as the 'finish playing vs comp' opens, the java icon appears in the tray (bottom right corner of the monitor)

I don't have finish playing vs. computer as an option

Look on a game that did not end in checkmate or stalemate.

I have.  It seems to be team matches where I can't access the finish v. computer feature.

Bump.

it's fine if a fix is in the works for this, or if chess.com is unclear as to what's causing my problem, but I would like to know if it is being worked on.

Thanks.

try again

i like the idea of the "try tactic against computer", but the computer is not very good.  when i first tried it, the default was set so the the computer was playing the tactic and i was defending it.  not only did the computer not get the tactic right, but i went on to mate. 

on another attempt, i tired to see what would happen if the defender moved differently to try to block mate.  it worked very well against the computer, but i later found out that it should have mated me in two moves. 

this is with the computer set to the hardest level.  it seems that if the computer isn't very good, then it wont really help you learn. 

I don't have this option for any of my finished games.

Sorry - I spoke too soon. I do have it. I hadn't checked any losses by the looks of it.

EDIT: I seem to only have it for the online chess games that I've lost, no live chess and no wins. Is this supposed to be the case?

@paul211:

I've got Finish Game Vs. Computer where the game ended by checkmate.
