What's more is the board is always blank. I try to play game and it tries to get me to buy a membership saying I can only play one at a time. Yeah right. I am going to buy a membership so I can get booted. Or maybe only members stay connected. Either way the site is bugging.
Interrupted Connections
I also just had a disconnection (6-7 minutes) and lost a game because of it.
During the outage, I tried opening other browser tabs to other sites (google, various newspapers, etc) and they worked fine. I was able to ping www.chess.com just fine,as well as various other places (google again) but wasn't able to ping live.chess.com (resolved to alekhine.chess.com), although it seemes I wasn't able to ping it after the outage either. So it doesn't seem to be a failure of my local internet connection.
Near the end of the outage I tried to open another live chess window and it took close to a minute to start up, which indicates to me that there was a real outage, which, once cleared, allowed this new window to proceed.
