That was supposed to say " 2 different games " not " 2 desperate games "
Forced moves

Hey, what's up, Wesley. So you played a game and you got into a position where you made no moves. I know exactly what you mean 
It happened to me a while back. I was like, "huh, Alekhine Defence? you gotta be kidding me!"
Well, here's what happened:
and then
Sometimes players will put that in the description of the game. Others won't. So if you're going to accept challenges then you should:
So my advice to you is to check to see that it's a normal game so that nobody pulls the wool over your eyes, OR enter in regular tournaments, OR be the one who seeks out games by creating them yourself.
Thanks for posting this, Wes. It's good for everybody to know. And SORRY about those games... It's frustrating to get into that kind of situation. Now if anything weird comes up you can come back here for help. Good luck!
Hey Squarology , what's up ? Thank you so much for your very detailed reply ! You explained the situation very clearly ! I was using a different shortcut as a way of creating games or accepting challenges . The way that I was doing it , it did not allow me to view a description of the game before I accepted it . So now that I know this , I will be much more careful about accepting challenges in the future ! I like to know what I am getting into before the game starts ! Thanks again for your help !
Awesome, Wes! :D Glad I could help!
Why is the computer automatically making my first move for me in online games ? In 2 desperate games against the same opponent , the computer forced me to play the Sicilian defense by automatically playing my first move ( 1.... c5 ) without me selecting it . I have not made any arrangements for the computer to make any predetermined moves for me either ! .... Does anyone know why this is happening ?
