Maybe making multiple premoves?
"Phantom" Moves not Seen?!?!?!
Sort:
Yes, this just happened to me! I moved a pawn to block a queen check in a daily game and when I came back to the game a minute later, the queen check had apparently never happened! It had been a tight game, but the ensuing sequence resulted in the immediate loss of a knight and it only worsened beyond that.

Do you have a link to the game?

It happened on move 8. Instead of Be2 as the record shows, he had moved Qh5. Thus, I responded with g6 to block the queen check. I would not otherwise have done that with his dark square bishop threatening my rook.

I've never heard of something like that happening. I guess it's possible there was a browser cache issue that loaded the position in correctly.
I have experienced many failed moves with the queen.
I try to move it to E8, for example, but the chessboard move fail and it moves it to another square, to the E6 for example. It happens specialy in mobile phones.
I have lost a game due of it.
I have never heard of this happening before however I have moved a queen and it didn't move it.
This issue happened on the app on my iphone.
So many times I am "missing" some phantom opponent's move....so I move and then something that didn't happen on the board is shown--usually with catastrophic results...
has anyone else had this happen???
