delete a game?

Hello just around a month ago I played against SlamOpen. We played 2 games, the first I won and after that we played a rematch which she offered. I lost the rematch and today I noticed by coincidence that the game I won isn't shown in my game archive. How is this possible if it shouldn't be possible to delete a game in the first place?

To be able to access to your entire archive of games you must be a premium member, I think.

Dani! :D

Are you trying to knock the helpfulness right out of me?

Pulpofeira

I'm sure the boy would agree with me.

LesuhAn

Which boy?

Pulpofeira

The OP!

Hahaha yes she is lovely indeed! And she is pregnant of our first baby so I could not be happier with her!! :D

But to get back on topic, isn't it kind of unfair that a premium member can delete games from my Game Archive? And do not get me started over the fact that it is kind of pathetic to delete a lossed game just because you can't handle your loss...

No games are deleted.  If you are a standard member in V2, you didn't have access to your stats beyond 30 days.  V3 promises full access for all.

No. Games can't be deleted.

Hello, I was wondering if my archive will ever start deleting itself? I don't want it to, I would like to keep all of my games, but I could see where that would take too much data. Will my archive ever begin to clear itself?

No. Assuming there was ever a storage shortage for the site, there are places they could recover more from than games. PGNs are just text, are extremely compressible,  and I couldn't see them deleting any games from the database, certainly not due to data storage reasons.

 

That said, I would always keep them in my own archive as well, since other things could happen, and having offline access is great.

 I don't think there is any way.If you want to end a game,simply resign.If it's a tournament game you can withdraw from the tournament. If you just need a break put the game in vacation mode..
