You are right Donna, I get a message when there is a new move, mostly before all the others take a look there and make there comments and suggestions.
I can either make my suggestion right away (as an 1100-rated player not the smartest option) and hope the others will make some comments that will be noticed by me... If I do not do this, the vote-game slippes out of sight.
SIGH :-(
This suggestion has been mentioned over and over and over and over again and STILL nothing gets done about it. The people on the site are screaming for something to be done to prevent vote games timing out such as a "my vote chess game" page so that we can see AT A GLANCE which vote games need attention before they time out. Having this feature would save so many games from timing out and make life a whole lot easier to the 1000s of players who enjoy vote chess on a regular basis.
