is it usual lineup for black to start with A from right to left ?and white from left to right ?
Avatar of baddogno

Yes, although I've seen at least one chessboard screw it up with left to right for both sides...OK I may own it...LOL

the chess board in my app is diffrent with A from right to left, and on the other side with A right to left
Avatar of baddogno

Thought you meant from each player's perspective.  Yes if you are  looking at the board from black's side, that is how it will appear.  Obviously the A file has to be the same for each player...Why do I feel that I have just been successfully trolled?  LOL

If you are both over on the live server it will work.

You need to get your eyes checked.  They are very small and indistinct and I certainly can't see them without my glasses, but they are there.

See the top green ribbon bar?   Under the Play menu, click on Live.  That will do it.  There's a Custom Challenge and you'll find Challenge Friend.
