Improvement on pre-moves

Sort:

You know when you loose because you pre-moved thinking your opponent would play the best move but he doesn't? If you have pre-moves enabled you know what i'm talking about.

How about, when we set pre-moves, we set he's moves before ours? That way, if we want to castle only after if he castles first, we "pre-move he's king, than ours". But if he plays attacks the Queen instead of castling than our pre-move won't be made.

I know pre-moves are up to us and we can't blame the system, it's just a nice new option that i would like to have. Any other improvements you guys would like to see?

You would like a conditional premove just like daily chess has. It would be difficult to setup the move condition under time pressure.

Daily chess on the website allows conditional moves, not premoves. You enter move line(s) as in a PGN.

When it’s your opponent’s turn in a daily game, click on the button with two curving arrows. Then you can enter the conditional move line(s).
