  102. ronin3b on the board closest to the camera there is one of the official European Go Professional players (the one on the left)
  103. Vanya-14 hello
  104. Fightnwin please stop open challenges from disappearing on their own
  105. ronin3b how does that happen?
  106. FiveKnights im pretty sure it happens when you are not looking at the page and you are in another tab
  107. ronin3b right. computers weren't supposed to have multiple tabs
  108. ronin3b they have played us for absolute fools
  109. ronin3b or maybe the open challenges get used up by getting used in currently open quick pair
  110. ronin3b given that more players may be using quick pair than people posting challenges, this might produce the observed phenomenon
  111. Fightnwin also when you just stay on the page, it just throws it out at some point
  112. Fightnwin not even talking about 5 minutes
  113. Fightnwin even if there's something with quick pair, unless the person posting the open challenge gets the game, it shouldn't affect it
  114. ronin3b maybe the developers of the site will know
  115. statmatt We are reviewing the whole challenge process on PlayStrategy at the moment.
  116. statmatt We agree that not everything is satisfactory in the way it currently functions
  117. Vanya-14 привет
  118. HoneyFried hi
  119. TacticzChess hi

  136. LegendsSquad Hi, I am new here, it really looks like Lichess.
  137. LegendsSquad Also, how can I become a moderator? It seems a bit to difficult to find a mod.
  138. FiveKnights It is not possible to apply to become a moderator. If we see someone who we think would be good as a moderator,we will contact them directly
  139. FiveKnights playstrategy.org/faq#mod-application
  140. FiveKnights @statmatt @vincent @jheps are mods if you need help
  141. LegendsSquad Thanks.
  142. LegendsSquad Are the creators of this site Lichess mod members?
  143. FiveKnights not that im aware of, the site is not affiliated with lichess, it only shares a lot of the same code
  144. LegendsSquad Oh, It just seems different by all the variants you can play, easier. Thanks!
  145. LegendsSquad Also, I think I need help, I really want to make a bot account, how? Anything helps.
  146. FiveKnights playstrategy.org/blog/YvJkQxAAACIApTnD/welcome-playstrategy-bots
  147. FiveKnights you can use the bot API
  148. LegendsSquad A little complicated, but thanks.
  149. LegendsSquad I have just read the TOS, and compared it to Lichess, I can honestly say that this site is better
  150. FiveKnights most people play during monthly shield tournaments, dont expect to find too many players here though
  151. LegendsSquad Exactly, few players, the more pieceful.
  152. LegendsSquad Want to challenge me? @FiveKnights
  153. FiveKnights not really. have fun on the site
  154. LegendsSquad Ok, thanks.
  155. LegendsSquad Also, check out my study. It is based on how to Punish the BG4 Pin. You guys will love it.
  156. LegendsSquad Also, looking at the messages above, please do not spam the chat. Keep it clean.
  157. Malu4226696 omh

  161. LegendsSquad Please, stop spamming the chat.
  162. LegendsSquad The point of the "Chat" is to communicate. Not to spam.
  163. LegendsSquad Please check the "Chat Ettique" as proof.
  164. LegendsSquad playstrategy.org/page/chat-etiquette
  165. LegendsSquad Example:
  166. LegendsSquad PlayStrategy is a place for strategy game friends from all over the world. If you ever saw people timed out in chats for “public shaming”, “
  167. LegendsSquad spamming in the chat”, “disrespecting other players”, or “inappropriate behavior”, you might wonder yourself, what they or you have done tha
  168. LegendsSquad PlayStrategy took action to timeout people from chat. Treat the chat always like you would treat a good friend, with politeness, respect and
  169. LegendsSquad Hope this helps.
  170. JehadCode Someone knows how to play Abalone
  171. LegendsSquad I kind of get the rules, but challenge me if you would like. Unlimited time. Nothing else.
  172. LegendsSquad Might want to play with a challenging Russian player. @RubenA14 is the user.
