I am trying to use an extension for the first time. In two out of four games i suddenly cannot play a stone but my clock keeps going and i lose by forfeit -even if I leave the site! I also cannot find a resume game option. Obviously if i cannot resolve these problems i cannot use this site
I love it, but the only HUGE missing feature is a chime when auto-match starts a game. I have lost quite a few games because the browser just happened to get buried and I forgot it was searching. Seriously, a chime is the only thing missing, and it is a gigantic problem.
I am not sure why, I played a game and suddenly I cannot play my stone at around 200th move position, but the chat still goes through. This happens the second time since yesterday (17 Sep.). Anyone knows why?
