2014-02-27	SicilianImplants	Thanks, Gianni!!
2014-02-27	SicilianImplants	Tira, buscar en Google si tu no entiendes. Por ejemplo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2RaZ39yh_k
2014-02-23	Datr	En passant e6 means the last move was a pawn move e7 to e5. The pawn can be captured, en passant, if there is a pawn on d5 or f5.
2014-02-23	Tirajana	Dopo aver chiamato un nuovo esercizio, questo si è presentato ma sulla destra della scacchiera è comparso un messaggio composto da un punto interrogativo [!] su tondo arancio e la scritta "en passant on e6". Cosa significa questa indicazione? Grazie
2014-02-23	Datr	I do, and the same time as used in User Stats, you know the time that is recorded when one attempts a problem.
2014-02-22	Garykevinware	Who cares? What time zone?
2014-02-22	Datr	Zuril: I think it would be a improvement if Date and Time was given when a message is posted on the wall and a comment is posted to a problem. Currently only the date is given. Eg 2014-02-22 10:45
2014-02-05	Gianni.Castagni	Chessboard update We just published the updated chessboard, a few fixes plus: • en-passant: a message is shown on the right of the board next to the title; • solution navigation with the mouse scroll wheel: simply move the mouse over the solution and scroll; • captured pieces updated during solution navigation; • promotion window correctly zooms pieces; • added support for IE8; browsers tested: Firefox, Chrome (win, linux and mac), Opera (win), Safari (osx), IE8, 9, 10, 11 (win) Enjoy
2014-02-03	Datr	N4Pll: I tried to play against Zeta today and my security settings wouldn't allow the program to run. I don't know how to override the security settings at this time so I will have to look into it.
2014-02-02	N4pll	To Datr: I would like to see you (play (menu)) Zeta computer and post your first win on the forum. You are better than me by about 100 ELO N4PLL
2014-01-25	Ender	Where is the write en passant now ? I've just tried the problem nr 123483 and i've not seen it so i could not consider some solution
2014-01-25	Datr	Originally only players with RD less than or equal to 100 were listed anyone inactive for about 2.5 months was removed. Now the RD is 150 so players aren't removed until about 4 months of inactivity. Personally I preferred the 100 limit.
2014-01-25	Datr	I have already made two suggestions: 1. When entering the Ranking Tactics Menu one should be taken directly to one's position, rather than having to scroll to find it, 2. In User Stats, The Ranking position should be given next to your ELO Rating It shouldn't be too difficult to write the code to do this.
2014-01-25	Garykevinware	There are already too many people, in the sense that long inactive players are still posted, and if you know your rating, you can compare yourself that way.
2014-01-24	Janullrich	Would it be possible to show some more players in the "Tactics ranking" table, so that more people can "find themselves" and get an overall idea of their position and ranking? It could encourage people to try and improve. Thank you for maintaining this site !

2014-01-20	Datr	Both of Colin800's messages are Wrong, I have replied to his comments to point out his mistakes.
2014-01-20	Colin800	There is a problem with Problem NR 44019. ? made a alternative mate but it said wrong. But they are WRONG. 1 - Qf8 Kg5 2 - Qf6#
2014-01-20	Colin800	Problem 37189 question is WRONG. it can not be checkmate in two moves. and also given solution is wrong! White pawn would easily take rook
2014-01-19	N4pll	Zuril: Could you create a search engine about the place and players about under the chessboard? I found a number of games of my city and friends who play in that city. N4PLL
2014-01-16	GuySchalnat	The wall is good training for chess. If you make a slight error, too bad, you lose. If you even touch the key, you have to press it. Just kidding, of course.
2014-01-15	Datr	Also, being able to amend and delete Comments on The Wall, would be useful. I made a slight error in my previous Comment, it would be useful to be able to delete or amend it.
2014-01-15	Datr	Zuril: On another site I use the email notification specifies the player who has replied, instead of: 1. Another user has replied to your comment ... it would say something like:: Garykevinware has replied to your comment ... I suspect this would be an easy improvement to make. 2. Another site I use specifies the date and the time a Comment was posted; So, 15-01-2014 and then on the line below 10:11.
2014-01-15	Datr	Having the option is my main point, then players can choose as they please. I see this as "Over the board" training, finding the best move is key in chess.Unfortunately even engine's disagree on which is the best move and often change their choice over time, so having "There is a better move" is a useful feature. Overall I think the site is well balanced. It is ideal for me because I see it as learning to play chess like an engine, which is the strongest style in my opinion.
2014-01-15	GuySchalnat	Not telling us if it is a mate problem or how many moves is an interesting idea. However, on harder problems, I find it more useful to tell me Mate in 3, because I already saw the mate in 5 and would have played it over the board, but finding the mate in 3 introduces me to a new pattern that hadn't occurred to me before, and I learn it much better by finding it myself rather then being told what it is. The way the website punishes you for perfectly good but slower moves makes this not a very good as an over the board problem website, but very good as a way to train your brain to see new moves and visualize better, which ultimately may do more for your over the board game then doing problems that are more "over the board" style problems where there is no direction given. That's just my opinion, of course.
2014-01-10	SicilianImplants	Yeah, that sounds fantastic Datr! I would probably start at number 2 and work my way toward 1.
2014-01-09	Datr	I made a similar suggestion a while ago. The idea was a player could select the level of info provide to them. 1. A problem, no mention of tactics or mate. 2. Tactics or Mate specified but the number of moves not given for mate problems 3. Tactics or Mate problems with specified number of moves for mate problems. Option 1. would be the most difficult. It would give players choice and I think it would be an improvement if possible.
2014-01-09	SicilianImplants	Hi Zuril, love the site. Thanks very much. For the problems where you have "Mate in 1 move", it's a dead giveaway by having those words there. I don't know what other people think, but every time I get one, I breathe a sigh of relief, as half the tactical work is done for me. Is it possible to include a setting to turn off the '(x) moves = Mate' text for those similarly minded? Thank you.
2014-01-09	Datr	Yes, I have confirmed that it is a fault and needs deleting.
2014-01-09	Didhablobille	Hello, it seems there is a trouble with problem 31736 (mate in 4). I have an another solution for this one.
2014-01-07	Zuril	Guidance updated. Thank you Datr.
