Move confirmation

I am using a PC and i' m careful as it is possible. What is the problem with a setting that allows to confirm your move, so anyone can play even with a touch pad without mouse blunders? Do you rely on other people mistaken hardware?

confirm button for vs computer and all game types!!

It is unfair that ipad users have it and laptop don't.

Is it some sort of bug or is there actually a reason for it??

Let me add a vote for an optional 'confirm move' button for the web interface. Perhaps implemented as a feature that may be turned off under time pressure during a live game.

i would think those that play bullet would say it would cost them more time, i would like it though.

is there still no move confirmation on the desktop site?  On mobile of ourse we can enable move confirmation which I am used to, so when I move from mobile to desktop I have been inadvertently screwed because the interfaces weren't the same.  And why wouldn't you assume that they weren't the same?  For consistency, please add an option for move confirmation.  I can't imagine any reason except for the fact that in real life you dont get a move confirmation when you let go of the piece (well in that case, why do we allow mobile to have move confirmation)

But how but how are you going to play those 1 minute games?

not sure if that was supposed to be sarcastic or not, but it could just be an option that can be disabled of course

Would be impractical for bullet and possibly blitz too (many blitz games literally become bullets in the end)

it would be optional...anytime you argue against confirmation realize u would have the option to remove it

Def not paying until this option gets implemented.

I would also LOVE to have the confirm button. What's the problem... just make it a parameter. Those who don't want it just don't activate it. Just like on Android... give the user options! We get use to it on Android and then it's not available on PCs. This option is great and prevent mouse or other problems. It also helps visualize the shot and allow to easily see the move before to confirm it.

I do not play live chess here for the sole reason that there is no confirm move option.  I will only play live chess on sites that do have a confirm move option.  It should be a standard feature on a chess site.  Inexcusable to not have it.

confirm means you can see one move more. this is not daily

I would like there to be a confirm button. I sometimes realize I made a mistake right after I move. The confirm would help me predict what my opponent will do.happy.png

Confirm button should be optional for laptop play; same as it currently is with IPad and Iphone. Opponent should not see move till you confirmed.   It’s silly that misclicks are treated as real moves. 

 

For those confident in their mouse skills and wanting time advantage just don’t implement the confirm.    Myself, I just switched from IPad (with) confirmation to laptop without and have already misclicked on  a few games.  LOL I do a good enough job of losing with my logic.  I don’t need the help of misclicks.

I would like to see the confirm option for live games on the laptop/table top version. A bad mouse click has caused me more than one game, and I know it has cost my opponent as well.

testaaaaa

i want a confirm button for ultrabullet!now!

Perhaps we can do an optional button, that disables itself after your clock goes below a set amount of time (set by the user).

A mandatory button is an extraordinarily bad idea- most of the bullet/blitz community would hate it.
