I looked at your game, and it appears you can't escape "checkmate". I don't know why you need 21 hours to figure it out

i know im losing lol, thats not the piont, my phone wont let me play because the queen is in a different place on my phones board, instead of f8 its on h8 and my only play is to f5, but my phone has a popup that says its illegal. i know mate is in 2 moves, but i dont need this to happen next time when im winning, im new to this site, ive only played 5 games or so, i like it, my game is better already, but i dont need a buggy program costing me my rating...

Oooohhhh! I see! 
9 hours now, well what happens if i cant play my turn, do i forfeit automatically???
i finally found the link to post pictures, same game, 2 different moves for the queen.
moving the king
illegal move on my phone because my phone has the wrong info?????????
Does it make a difference? Play it with assumption that online position is correct one.I am connected at the moment via Opera mini. You can also play the move via Opera mini.And obviously you got to the PC somehow.So why don't you play?
mainly because next time it might cost me the game in a less dire situation. yall seem more hung up about my obvious loss than the fact that the program is screwed up. i dont want to have to come to my comp to play a move because my phone, or whatever it is, isnt translating it right. my phone wont let me move, i havent even tried to play it online yet because i want attention brought to this. where do you draw the line for program errors? whats next, queens jumping like knights for the next game?
and im not sure which move is the correct move, to see which should determine the outcome. im playing on my phone, online should not be the correct one unless maybe he is playing it online. i realize they both 2 move mates, but next time it may not be... im trying to get my opponents attention to find out more info, but it seems by then the game will be over anyway.
well i made my move, i count 5 different checkmates, which according to what my phone is still showing are impossible on my phone. it still hasnt updated my play, and technically i moved into a mate...i would certianly hope people care more about their site, program, and more importantly the game, than reactions have shown me. if it turns out you dont and it happens again i think ill just move on....
You got the message from Kohai, does it solve your case?
no reinstalling didnt help...and i wonder if my opponent is able to play now that i made my move
@redster78
I think I understand what it is that you are trying to ask. Looking at the image in post #7, it shows that is Black's move. #73 to be exact. The phone has White Queens at h8 and g7, the online version has White Queens at f8 and g7. The move list at the bottom of phone: 69). Qg8 Kh6 70) f7 Kh5 71) Qh8 Kg6 72) f8=Q Kg5 73)Qg7 ... Does the online move list agree with this?
Apparently White moved the Queen to h8 and promoted his f pawn to another Queen. Then White moved the Queen from f8 to g7. However, the online version of the game has moved the Queen from h8 to g7. (Both Queens could move to g7 at White move 73.)
I, agree, this is indeed a problem. Since the both versions of the game, on the phone and online, are being played at chess.com they should be identical.
yes defrancis7, that is exactly what happened. the online move list 73 throws in an H for the queen move
i think there is something wrong with the code, when it comes to promoting and picking up multiple pieces i guess, im no programmer, but it seems logical enough. i think the online version is the right play, thats the most obvious move and checkmate that even a moron would play, i moved my king to h5 and my phone didnt update the change because its putting me in check.
now what i dont know is if his version is showing the same thing, not allowing him to play either. since ive won on time since then, and he was fairly on the ball about playing, i guess he couldnt play his turn, whether he is online or his phone i dont know...and now hes gonnna be mad about losing one move from mating me...
we definately have a problem here, most likely its on my end, being the phone getting the wrong info for some reason, so if it helps whoever looks into it, im on a samsung fascinate running android. edit to add my wifes droid x shows the same as my phone does
anyway thanks for the help, hopefully they fix this before it happens too many times
i have no idea what happened to my comment there, bottom line theres a problem, fix it. im on a samsung fascinate running android, that would be a good place to start...
Win on time, nice one. 
Obviously a phone somehow misinterpreted the move.
Instead of Qhg7+ it has only Qg7+. Since either of 2 queens can move to h7, the phone moved the wrong one.
It seems to be a bug. 
i dont know how to explain the situation, but im stuck in check on my cell phone and the only move i can make it calls an illegal move, logging on here to see if anyone ever had this problem, i noticed that the guy made a different move on my computers board. according to that, my illegal move would put me in check, but my the only way out of check on the comp would put me in check on the phone, which it wont let me do anyway. anyone ever have this problem? either way, i have 21 hours to figure this out, if you dont beleive id be happy to post pics or a video of the craziness.
