Game Seek Error

Sort:
Ned63

I'd like to improve my game as black, and when creating a seek, I want to create, say, 2 games with a 5 day play limit.

When I try to create the 2nd game seek, I get an error, saying I already have a 5 day game seek as black.  This shouldn't be an error, as this is what I want to do.

Can you fix this please?

same thing happened to me.  maybe just wait until the first opponent is found, and then post the other game.

As far as I understand it, the "open seek" function is continuous, until you cancel it. You will always have an open seek for that type of game - it doesn't work on an individual basis - any number of games can be created by any number of opponents who choose to play. =)

That is what I understand as well.  I would just start one game at a time with given criteria if you are unable to start multiple games at the same time using the open seek function.

yeah. jay and i argued about this point, and for some reason he won (oh yeah, it is because i am powerless to do anything since he is the code-monkey). :) but jay about it - we should be able to create as many seeks as we want!!

what I usually do is when i want games just create games of all move lengths

If you are set on a 5 day moves you have to wait until your first game is started before creating another of the same day move length

Thanks for all the comments.

I know that I need to wait for a 5 day challenge to be accepted before issuing another one.  I just thought it would be kinda cool to issue multiple challenges of the same duration in quick succession.

agreed! post a message to user "jay" and let him know ;)
