Some ideas for improvements

Hi all.

First message here, hope I'm posting in the right place.

I've been playing live for some time now and I'd like to submit to your attention some random thoughts:

1) After logging in, a popup is shown asking if I want to "Open a new seek": why not simply show the New Seek popup instead?

2) The Seeks panel really needs some work, but there's already a thread about it: hope to see those improvements soon.

3) When "rematching" the chat window is reset: kinda annoying.

4) Opera support would be nice, Firefox works nicely though.

5) After a disconnection I never managed to reconnect unless I close FF: can this be fixed?

6) A take-back button would really be welcome or, at the very least, a way to abort a game after mutual agreement.

7) Dragging pieces sometimes doesn't work well (most probably fat fingers on my end ): would it be possible to add support for making moves by selecting a piece and then clicking its destination square?

Thanks for reading so far and apologies for my English.

Sorry, just realized #7 is already implemented: don't know how I missed that.

Alessandro

thanks!

1. will consider

2. yep - working on it.

3. agreed :)

4. i think Opera needs to work on the fix :( we are a small company compared to them and if the other major browsers work, they need to step it up.

5. stinks. will investigate.

6. in the future.

7. yes, already done :)

Hi erik and thanks for taking time to reply.

I'd just like to add, about #7, that I didn't notice at first probably because mouse interaction is not ideal.

If I click on a piece when it's not my turn, nothing happens actually: I think it would be better If I could select one of my pieces (and see what I have selected) regardless, at least I'd know the click worked.

Regards.

Alessandro
