Thanks kco.

Hi Kikyo_Sushi.

I tried that test as I am also running Firefox with wireless broadband (on a Mac).

The test gave me an "F" rating,"'Very poor. Real time application performance will suffer greatly on such a connection".

This is true, as I suffer disconnections on other sites due to the fact that the live games require a good connection. My fix is to choose 15 minute games minimum as this gives me 5 to 10 or more minutes playing time.


The Connection here is Very Unstable !

Yeah,I can't play Bullet or Super Blitz ( also coz of lag ) .. I normally play 10/0 Rapid .. If I get to connect back sucessfully,still can make it,mostly .

.. recently got dcd from a lot of Tourneys.

.. Nowadays,it also happens frequently immediately after my Seeks r accepted ,so they get automatically aborted by Server or it says 'Game Abandoned' after that .( think we get 'credited' with d Abort if this happens coz we don't get to make our First Move )

.. Yeah,Tnx kco for d Test Link !

nope these are not relating to actual internet connection problems. these are errors by script running behind.This is happening in live chess only.  I two 2-3 games in a row simultaneoulsy.. it all happens in the middle of a game. my clock stops and my opponent's ticks... I feel like he is going to get timed out.. suddenly it shows up that 'connection interruption'  and my last move is not done and i lost in timeout...

pitty.. firstly i thought it is something related with premium membership but now i realise that it is not.

dont know why these scripts running behind  may be some check to find fraudsters...

TheBAVARIAN    Happened to me many times now...these connection interruptions. It is agrivating to the point where I want to stop playing life chess. I always lose, though time wise or other I should have won.

Sure has a way of bringing down a rating that was hard fought for. But....That's the way the "server" bounces ! :)

What  I noticed recently is that a lot of disconnection is due to shockwave. Lately it's crashing on me or stops responding in every second game or so. It started it after the last "maintenance". After that i couldn't start any games. The board appaered grey and much bigger without any pieces on it. I had this problem before, but after a few trys it fixed itself. it was a bi8t strange, but didn't really bother me that much. But not htis time. It didn't change for a few days. I have an addblocker enabled in my browser, which i switched off and voila, problem solved. I can now start any games I want...I just cannot finish them because shockwave dies on me frequently, or the site just directs me to adobe.com and take over a minute to navigate back to the board.

Nicely done. This is how you mess up a great site. Forcing me to watch russian hookers just doesn't make up for the quality loss of playing here.

I hope it gets fixed soon :)

If you can fix this here is a code during an interruption..

I was watching my buddy play once. He was down a piece, heading into the endgame. He handed me the mouse, cuz he needed to go ttro the bathroom. We were about the same strength, but we both knew I was better in endgames.

Didn't think there was much I could do here. But I played on. And on.

Just as my buddy is returning, my opponent sacrificed his extra knight, to create an unstoppable passed pawn.

I realized he would get his queen. But he would be checkmated, before he could move it! I was going to win!

Lost connection.

Timed out.
