Just released a new turn-based chess feature!
Yep! We have a winner guys! You can stop guessing now!
"The option to disable auto-win on time? At least I havn't seen it there before."
You can now CHOOSE whether or not you want to win on time automatically. This setting can be found on your Settings page here:
http://www.chess.com/home/echess_settings.html
If you unclick this box, then you will NEVER win on time again, unless you go to a game where your opponent has run out of time and click "CLAIM WIN ON TIME".
ENJOY! and thanks for all the guessing. Neneko, your 3 hours of Chess Mentor is coming right up! :)
