Easily challenge online players

Hello, on more than one occasion, I have pressed the wrong button after playing a live game.

I wish it were easy to go to my history, and

click on a player's name, and press "Challenge to a live game".

The live player "search" feature is difficult to use -- you must click on the alphabetical list of players and continue to scroll.

Also, I haven't found a way to challenge a player

to a *live* game while viewing their profile.

You can view your live games history and challenge them from there. Of course they have to be online.

tookelso, I think they also have to be in the Live Chess area for the challenge to got through.

Hey but - Is that a Tiger Cub in your avatar??? (Is it you????)

Yes Rsava, I was a tiger cub. Advanced all the way to Life Scout by the age of 14 and that's where I am at now (because of high school)

Outstanding. Congratulations for getting to Life. My sons both stopped at First Class (both started as Tigers also).

Are you going to try for Eagle?

Sorry for hijacking the thread tookelso.

Honestly, I am not sure. Time is being consumed so much, but frankly I don't want to be in BSA if they are going to support homosexuals. I have nothing against loving homosexuals for the people they are but I absoultly refuse to support anything that goes against my beliefs. Thinking about waiting for an alternative to BSA and earning that organization's equivalent to BSA's Eagle

Hi guys, I'm just not seeing how to challenge the players

from my live games history.  I wish it were easier.  Maybe the players in my game history are not online right now -- it seems like

it's not as easy as it should be to challenge or find players online, in my humble opinion.  I hope chess.com improves this process :-)

True, they need to be online at the same time as you...no way to challenge otherwise

This is *way* too difficult!!!!!

Many times, I would simply like to challenge people that I've played *Live* within the last 10 minutes.  Looking them up is *much* too difficult to encourage a relationship/challenging atmosphere in Live Play.  Most of the time, I'm either re-matching someone or else playing an entirely new online opponent.  This site would be much more sticky if you could easily challenge people you've played recently to a new *online/Live* game.
