Summary

Hi, I no longer get any emails saying when it's my turn. I have all the boxes checked.

Environment

• Operating system: Windows 10
• Browser: Google Chrome
• Browser Version: 56.0.2924.87 (64-bit)

Steps To Reproduce:

I make moves and don't get emails when it's my turn until time starts running out.

Summary

For the past two weekends starting and stopping weekends has not happened automatically, although manually triggering the start and stop seems to have worked just fine.

Summary

Countdown at the end of base time is unnecessary, as there is nothing real penalty for breaching the threshold there. I.e. if you slip by 1 second, you just lose one second, vs. slip in byo = 1 byo period gone.

Sometimes I find myself playing a rushed move in the end of base time for no reason other than the misleading extra countdown.

Environment

• Operating system: any
• Browser: any
• Browser Version: any

Steps To Reproduce:

1. Start a blitz game under byo-yomi or canadian time control
2. Observe the countdown close to the end of base time

Additional Information:

Suggested fix:
For base-time only time controls all the cues should be present. For an overtime based time settings (byo-yomi and canadian) the cues should happen only close to the end of overtime period(s).

Summary

When playing correspondence games the Submit button should not automatically go to the next game but allow the planning of conditional moves

Environment

• Operating system:
  Windows 10
• Browser:
  Edge
• Browser Version:
  The latest

Steps To Reproduce:

1. Go to first correspondence game, play a move
2. Click submit
3. See that entering a conditional move is not possible if there are other games which require a reply.

Additional Information:

If there are no further games requiring a move the Submit works correctly.
It is NOT acceptable to say that you can go back to the game and enter conditional moves when you have spent considerable time with the game in front of you to work out what you are planning.

Include any screen shots, links to games/reviews, wonky SGFs, or other information that is useful

Summary

Highlight a variation in chat during a live match. When a play comes in, you don't see that play of course which is fine, but when you mouse off of the Variation you still don't see the new move. But since you aren't in analysis mode you can't just click Back To Game. You have to manually click right arrow to move forward a move, then click Back To Game. Or you can wait for another move to be played, which will reset the board properly.

What should happen is that when you mouse off of the Variation, it show the new current board position even if moves happened while you were looking at the Variation.

News posted on group pages cannot be edited or deleted by group admins. That possibility existed before the release of version 5, but this is no longer the case.

This is inconvenient, for there is no way to correct mistakes made in news publications, or clean up old/irrelevant/false information posted in the past.

1. Go to a group page where you are an admin
2. Click the little pencil

I had to log into that game to accept the scoring for RoyalLeela. I watched the game end and the opponant accepted, but it was waiting on RoyalLeela. So for some reason the "this is a bot game, auto score it" didn't fire.

Random guess, maybe it was a direct challenge? Is the "auto score this" based on a player being flagged as a bot account, or the game made under Create Game -> Vs Computer?

That's a long shot, but I don't have any other ideas why some games don't actually auto-score.

https://forums.online-go.com/t/bug-with-correspondence-time-settings/11088

================

Hello,

I had an issue I thought might be worth mentioning here. I tried to create a custom correspondence game with fischer settings but I noticed a glitch when trying to select different time settings from the default ones

The default settings are 3d + 1d/move up to 1 week. However, if you change the increment to something else (say, 12h/move or smth) then it will automatically change the maximum time and won't let you select anything for it

I tried several time and I think I've reliably re-created it. If you select 2d as the initial time and 16h as the increment, it will set the max time to 1day (which, of course, doesn't make sense since the initial time is 2 days). It will change the max time to other values depending on what you have selected for the initial time and the increment. Perhaps there's some part of the code that is referring to those inputs? I'm not sure, since I'm not a coder myself

Thanks,
gw71

Summary

Byo-yomi presentation is confusing

Consider a game with time settings of 2 mins base time and 1 extra byo yomi period of 30s, how much time left in game does this player have?
0:05+1x30s

It can mean that either:

1. There are 5 more seconds of base time and extra byo-yomi period
2. Player has entered overtime and his last byo yomi ends in 5 seconds

Even both situations are presented in the same way, breaching that 5 seconds limit in the second option means losing a game on time.

Environment

• Operating system: any
• Browser: any
• Browser Version: any

Steps To Reproduce:

1. Start a game with time settings 2 mins base time + 1 x 30s byo-yomi

...since migrating onto new version. Mentioned here: https://forums.online-go.com/t/no-more-email-notification-since-upgrade/10569/22

On a side note I'd like to ask an option for "your move" notifications to be sent only once there is a game to play and do not send email on EVERY game that becomes available. But probably this should go to another issue.

Summary

When first opened the website displays correspondence games in an unordered list.
There is no indication of which games are waiting a reply.
The list is not ordered

• it should be in the order of games requiring a reply
  and then by lowest time remaining to make a reply.

Some games you can download SGF files for, and some you cannot. Ones that cannot just give me a network error in Chrome. Someone else told me they were able to download an SGF I was not, although the terminator at the end of the SGF was missing.

2. Wait for your turn
3. Grow older while waiting for an email that never comes

Summary

When reviewing a game, cursor no longer follows the cursor of the user in control.
For example, if the user in control jumps to move 90, the other users will remain in the previous move.
This might as well be a visual glitch, and not a server problem.

Environment

• Operating system: Ubuntu 16.04
• Browser: Chrome
• Browser Version: 54.0.2840.90

Steps To Reproduce:

1. Open a game
2. Start a revision with user A (the one in control)
3. Join the revision with user B
4. Move around in the moves tree of user A.
5. Cursor and board of user B doesn't update.

Additional Information:

Not related to a specific game, it has happened in several reviews.

Summary

The correspondence game count goes way down over the weekend because most games pause over the weekend (which removes them from that list and count). This shouldn't happen for weekend pausing.

Summary

Summary

In the ratings graph under a user's profile, the game link is barely viewable. This should be changed to a lighter color to contrast the gray box; currently it's a dark gray which makes it barely visable. I would make a pull request, but I don't have my environment setup just yet. If you can point me to the area where this code exists, I can take a crack at updating the style there. Thanks.

Environment

• Operating system: Win 8
• Browser: Chrome
• Browser Version: 55.0

Steps To Reproduce:

In the user's profile, hover over a point in the ratings graph where the rating changed due to a game result. The link is contained in the box which pops up under the cursor.

Example screenshot:

Bots generally seem to support Chinese moreso than Japanese scoring. Leela only knows Chinese, GnoGo can do either with a command line switch. Feugo has weak Japanese scoring support.

Could we either toggle the default over to Chinese for all "Vs The Computer" matches for now, or add a way in the API a bot can tell the server what game rule(s) it wants to allow when people queue Vs Computer? Maybe some part of the connect to server set, or a new API call for "I allow these rules" and send an array in.

Whatever you do, remember to tweak the settings on Fuego and GnuGo to Chinese scoring if this change gets made.

Summary

Long usernames hide essential information for the second player. Screenshots: https://forums.online-go.com/t/really-long-user-names-hiding-time-information/10602/2

Environment

• Operating system: ubuntu
• Browser: firefox
• Browser Version: 51

Possible Quickfix

cut usernames after fix amount of letters

Add an option for "your move" notifications to be sent only once there is a game to play and do not send subsequent emails on EVERY game that becomes available; supposedly until a visit to online-go. Same as with forums where you do not get a mail for every post in every topic you've subscribed to, but a single notification "there are new posts in your bookmarks, go visit".

Example:

1. Black circle in upper right shows 8 games waiting on you to move
2. Click it and you go to the game with the least time remaining for you to move
3. Make/submit your move - count goes down to 7
4. Click it again to go to the next game
   **5. Game is in scoring phase, you select territory, submit, your opponent already did this, you match selections, and the game ends with you winning
5. The count still shows 7...**
6. Click it and you go to the game with the least time remaining for you to move
7. Make/submit your move - count goes down to 6

This conversation I think summaries the issue and concludes with a good suggestion.

[10:13]slavka012: Current implementation of conditional moves is horrible
[10:14]slavka012: I like to use it when playing against slow players
[10:14]slavka012: but when they make a move it immediately switches back to game
[10:15]slavka012: if I happen to be making conditional move in the split second that it switches back, I end up making an unintended move in the real game
[10:24]roy7: When using conditional moves maybe you should change settings to the Double Click or Click + Submit option to prevent that :)
[10:36]slavka012: ah, ok.
[10:36]slavka012: not perfect but I can live with that
[10:37]slavka012: keep options page open in second window and switch on and off when needed
[10:37]roy7: Maybe "first move after closing conditional move window" should require click to submit. Or conditional move window shouldn't close automatically at all.
[10:38]roy7: Just reset to new state but still be in conditional move input mode.
[10:38]slavka012: That would be ideal, reset all of the conditional moves, but stay in conditionals, or give me a modal dialog box warning we exit conditionals so it is impossible to make a move

So basically, if you are entering conditional moves and the opponent makes a play, clear the conditional move situation and reset to new board but remain in the conditional move input system until you choose to exit it. Otherwise if you auto-exit moments before clicking, you might make a wrong move to live board by accident.

Tournament page tabs have the same title as the main Chat page. Moreover, the title refreshes following the number of unread messages in all chat channels, not only in the tournament chat.

Environment

Steps To Reproduce:

1. Open a tournament page tab and leave it on background
2. Wait for a while and you'll see (N) on the tab title, with N not consistent with the number of unread messages in that tournament chat channel.

Summary

Steps To Reproduce:

1. Go to online-go.com
2. Click on "Play" at top of screen.
3. Notice that there is no automatch feature

Additional Information:

I suggest adding a simple automatch system similar to the one that KGS offers.
It would make finding an opponent much quicker and simpler and require less knowledge and setup for newcomers.

Here is the KGS Automatch as an example, from https://www.gokgs.com/

Summary

The player's information and game infirmation during a game is incomplete: the area that usually displays the player's icon, name, rank, time left and captured stones just displays the icon and time left on mobile. The other information are invisible. The time left on the other hand is in a font way bigger than all other information.
The only workaround so far to see the other information is to turn the phone in horizontal mode which doesn't seem to work on all phones either.

Environment

Summary

When you start planning conditional moves but then decide not to confirm them, you could always click cancel and the conditional moves that were not saved yet were deleted again.
Lately, cancel does seem to safe conditional moves as well though. The only way to get rid of played moves in conditional move planner is to manually delete every move and then hit confirm

Environment
