What the hell is this game aborted crap?

Game magically aborted right at this moment. I don't believe it... What the hell is that? Lot of shady crap on this site. Very frustrating.

Same here.  Game aborted.  Can't play at the moment.  Must be some system error.

Makes no sense. Every move and game is obviously saved on a server. There is no reason for the game to abort completely. 

If the company just needs restart the server, a warning would have sufficed.

Frankly, the subscription price here was way too low to be honest. I would happy be pay more for less issues.

Ur complaining about a non-issue.

When the server is taken down for maintenance any ongoing game is instantly cancelled, as if it never existed. 

It just saves a lot of headache. Plus usually there is a server warning that tells u when exactly the server will go down for maintenance. I'm not sure why ur losing ur mind over it.

I doubt that anyone is losing their mind over this issue. I have noticed that no one in a lost position has mentioned it.

Website has a bug or server goes down. Customers complain. Pretty normal and logical reaction.

But knowing in advance, you should be ready for it and thus not complain if you play a game near maintenance break hours.

The live chess server gone and on the live chess it says that it will restart and if it shows that you shouldn't be taking a game or play a tournament because it gets aborted

the servers never go down for long, and it's a common re-occurance to make sure the servers work well.

Like if you are gonna be making a forum post about it, u should be thanking them. Would you rather them not bother with the servers and just let them be garbage? then u will complain that the servers don't work. 

I guess people will complain no matter what.

Can someone explain how I can resume an adjourned game?

The kind of English everyone uses when they lose.

I got a message about server maintenance. Probably crashed.

 

 

Server maintenance is planned downtime, not a crash.

The site doesn't do adjournments. It used to, really early on, when live started, but hasn't been around for a long time.

I just played a game, wherein, I made a bishop move discovering a checkmate. The game aborted!

And it showed the position before I made the move. Rather than take a screen shot, I clicked on the x to close the pop up window, and the app exited. And when entering the game record is gone.

I don’t know if this is a server error, but based on when it happened, it reeks of some kind of cheating.

This was probably a server error I bet

Not that long ago, there was a red banner in live chess saying "Server restart in 20 minutes." I assume that that's what happened to your game.

When the server restarts, in-progress games are aborted and not included in your game record.
