Open Seeks

Avatar of Burke

I can't seem to find the open seeks for, say, a 3 day game without accidently starting a game I don't want to playand having to abort it. I tried it 2 different ways, started 2 different kinds of games, aborted them and then got a message that I can't continue to abort games. Where can I find step by step instructions to find the open seeks without starting a game I don't want to play accidently?

I have the same problem.  Somewhere in the "help" listings it says that on my "Daily Chess" page, to the right of the current games, there is a box containing the word "Play" and under it a link to Open Seeks.  I have a box with "Play", but under it is nothing but "Join a Tournament".  I, too, had to abort a game because of attempts to find the Open Seeks.  Can anyone help?

On the website, Play > Daily Chess. Under New Game, change to a Daily time control and then choose the option Open Challenges

 

The app is similar. You go to Play, hit the + for a new game and select Open Challenges.

Thanks. That works. Why programmers have to make sure that things are not simple is also beyond me.

 Thanks, Martin_Stahl -- it worked for me, too.  I wonder if some programmers ever try using the programs they have created.

This doesn't seem to work anymore. You go to play and there's no option for Open Challenges like there used to be. What's changed now?

It's under Play > Custom Game > Open Challenges

Daily games are on the far right.
