Trouble Locating Ongoing 48-Hour Game

Sort:

I am having trouble locating a 48-hour game I am playing ("correspondence chess").  From the Chess.com home page, how do I get to it?  I know about the Alert feature.  When there is an Alert (i.e., it's my move) I have no problem.  Likewise, when I get an email notification that it's my move.

What about when it's my opponent's move and I just want to look at the board?

It depends on whether you are using a browser version or an app. And if you are using a browser,  it also matters if you are using V2 or V3.

Which is it?

In the meantime, here is your game:

I am using a browser - IE at work and Firefox at home.  Am having trouble finding the game on both browsers.  V2 - V3?  Sorry, not sure what you mean with this.  I am using the "New" site rather than the "Old" site, if that's what you are talking about.

Yes, V3 or version 3, is the new version of the site, currently still in development.

V2 or version 2 is the old stable site that acts just the same as it always has.

In V3, correspondence chess is called "Daily Chess" for some reason. Just click on the links to "Daily Chess" and your game should be at the top.

If for some reason, you still can't find your game in V3, report it as a bug (Use the "Report Bug" link (it looks like a bug) ) and go back to the old version.
