Chess.com suggestion box

Hi,

Message support this way, if you have already its just waiting I'm sure they won't be to long. 

It would be nice to have the "restart" puzzle in the "apps" version of chess.com ... as well as the ability to rate the theme ... but just the "restart" button would be divine.

I wish the puzzle-battle were longer in time. I mean, when you are out after 3 misses anyway, and some puzzles take some time to solve, going through the easier ones gobbles up the time. If it was just 10 minutes instead of 5 it would have been much more fun.

It would be nice for puzzles (particularly the end game) that he puzzle let you finish out the game against the computer. I have seen several endgames where I wanted the practice to finish the game.

That's already possible.

I would like to propose a new Chess variant called Anarchy Chess inspired by the Reddit thread...the rules are simple, the board is set up the same way except pawns can move forward as many squares  as wanted at any time... giving a pawn an open file is a potential queen. I consider the pawns are the people protesting against the Kingdom

Whatever was suggested back in 2011 didn't work because chess.com only got worse.

Haven't read through all of these (so I don't know if similar ideas have been submitted), but I love Vote Chess but there are several improvements that can be made

TL;DR - make a "default to this move" option where a move can be selected but still be changed before voting. Or allow votes to be changed after submission! Also, allow vote chess games to be added to the list of daily games so that they don't fall through the cracks.

Currently, I believe most teams have a rule that nobody should vote prior to there being 24 hours remaining for the move; this is done to allow for discussion and suggestion of moves prior to voting (which is what adds so much to Vote Chess - hearing why others believe in their move!). However, partially because it can be difficult to find the vote chess games, and because the easiest way for most of us to vote on the games is to check the comments that appear, often the planned move from the team discussion doesn't get played because nobody commented around the 24-hour mark so the only votes that were counted were by those that broke the rule and voted before hearing suggested moves! 

Both of those exist (from your blitz as white stats):

Moves (from one of my games): 

If it is not your turn, allow the opponent's mouse position to be visible to you.  A benefit is during bullet you can know what the next move is before it is completed, so it allows for a faster game.  Keep in mind that's the whole point of bullet -- to play chess fast, so this feature enhances bullet.  Keep in mind that currently there are delays from the time it takes to pick up to place down and also the animation reenacting the opponent move after it was completed.   In bullet, to save lost time the pieces just magically change position.  Horrible solution.  A side benefit is knowing if your opponent is cheating since a cheater's mouse usually will leave the chessboard of the brower's tab. With my improvement there are four sound types and you hear of a move before it is completed instead of after the move occurred and the animation mimicking it is already over (and the piece collides with the board).

Very positive that won't happen.

As a noob it would be nice to play a game where we can both see the evaluation bar. Mastery needs feedback and I have no idea what I'm doing.

They should add orbital racer and Frankishere as bots and update their elo along the way.

I really love the conditional moves feature! It helps my games run smoothly and efficiently, especially as I cannot seem to fix my Chess.com notifications on Android. I would like to see two updates, however.

First, I'm disappointed that you recently restricted conditional moves to just one path (e.g., "You've already made a response to Kd6.") Consider my current game (but please refrain from commentary until it concludes), in which I expect my opponent to play 30... Kd6. I automated 31. d4 in response, which leaves him two ways to trade rooks. My opponent is likely to respond 31... Kxe7 or 31... dxc4, and I see no reason that I should be prevented from making two different lines for two different and non-contradictory paths.

Second, the mobile app does not support conditional moves. What a bummer! I would prefer to play chess on my phone, rather than boot up a computer simply to tap some buttons.

1) On mobile, don't allow you start a game with less that 10% battery (user selectable 5%, 10%, None). I've ran out a few times.

2) If you open the resign screen during a game and do nothing for 30 seconds it should auto resign. More than once out of frustration I hit resign and thought I confirmed...and maybe tossed my phone only to find that I didn't confirm.

3) It would be nice if the clock was more highlighted when the time got under 1 minute. Perhaps it is part of the game, but I hate being surprised that my time ran out. Perhaps make it red or flash...and allow the user to "confirm" it by tapping it to turn it off.

You should be able to have a “vote” where you can skip the waiting time, where at least half vote yes to skip the remaining time.

I also wish that during analysis, you can use selected lines that you made up for analysis and be able to change them during game analysis.
