Bot changed color on Checkmate and made me lose

Sort:

Good Day, I'm really new on Chess.com and played against a Bot called Martin Krueger.

At that Partie I was playing as White and the Bot as Black. After some moves I cornered his King and made a Checkmate but at the result screen it was showing that the Bot won. In the Analysis it also shown that the Bot is color White and not Black anymore so it changed colors and broke my statistics.

I wanted to ask if this is normal or if this is a bug and if others also had the same problem. Thanks

No, it's not normal. Some people have warned us about the AI takeover but I didn't think it would come so soon.

Did you save the game?

This happened to me twice. It is a bug.

This is still a problem and chess.com seems to have no interest in fixing it.

The problem actually starts at the beginning of the game. Captured pieces show up under the wrong player's name and the bot's comments are for the wrong side. It might be a problem with rematches.

This might be why I can't find my win vs. the Kosteniuk bot.

..update..
Welp, nevermind-- I went back and looked now a different way (filtered all recent games vs bots) and it's there... a draw and a win against "her" for me. I could've sworn it was showing as a draw and a loss even though I had won.

Maybe I'm losing my mind.
