And another vote game times out

Sort:

Has this new feature been announced in a new thread with an appropriate title so others not aware of this thread might learn of it?  Perhaps include a suggestion that group leaders post a note or message within their own groups to let their members know.  Otherwise, a lot of people may not notice the new menu listing under "my home".

Yeah Thank you Kohai !!   This does the job I have like 6 pages of games but this will work. Everytime I'm online now just have take a quick glance at the first page to see what games are getting close to turning over. We still have the comments to go though but this does address the time out problem and that is what we were asking. Thanks again and I'm glad you were able to find a way to do this with out a bunch of complicated programing changes.


The thanks go to Erik and Jay, they are the ones that did this. I'm just the messenger :)

That's a good point, I'm off to my groups now to post this....

 so as well as not shooting the messenger we shouldn't thank them either?

You're welcome. There is also a link to the new page from the standard votechess page in the top right:

 

http://www.chess.com/votechess/

 

I've also fixed sorting so it shows games where it is your move first.

Great work, Jay.  Now it says "My move" next to games where it is my move.  Is there any way to move the games where we haven't voted yet to the top of the list ahead of the games where we've already voted?  Or maybe change "My move" to "Already voted" for those games?

You're more than welcome to blame me if that makes you happy

Wow, good work, jay and co.

Kohai, I'm saying thank you for your help and suggesting that you shouldn't be saying you are only the messenger and shouldn't be thanked.  Sorry if it seemed I was trying to say something else. 

The page is pretty much exactly what I wanted.

OK, I just spammed an announcement of this great new feature to the forums of all 6 groups that had low enough standards to accept me as a member.  Spread the news, folks!

Oh, you meant the other part?

I stand in awe and amazement at the brilliance of the chess.com staff that have had their hand in making this possible!!

Ya know, a couple minutes after I posted it I almost went back to that note to append an EDIT indicating which part of the news I was suggesting spreading, and then I thought nah . . . Cool

Ok, this is the best you're gonna get from me today, and maybe ever. :) I've now added sorting by which games you've actually voted in already, and changed the display to show that more clearly. Enjoy!!!

That's AWESOME!!!!  That's PERFECT!!!  ...but mine's not doing that yet.  Undecided  It still says "My Turn to Vote" even in the games that I've voted already.
