Suggestion To AdminBrian
I have made a suggestion to AdminBrian, which, if implemented, I think would be a big improvement for Caissa. I have suggested that we need some kind of distinctive sound to be heard when a player is on the Waiting List for a live game, and another player accepts a gamw with him/her. As things are now, the acceptance window is usually brought to the front, but not always. I have been watching a game before, while on the Waiting List, and, on exiting that game have found an acceptance of my Waiting List game which has timed out. Some kind of sound accompanying an acceptance would solve this little problem.
How do other Caissans feel about this?

A good idea, in theory; But at the risk of stating the obvious; How can you be reasonably sure, that "Admin. Brian" is even attentive, to this sort of request?! .. Even if Every single 'Caissa' {paid} member, were to add their posted 'here-here,' to your idea?! --

When they invented the word, "negative", did they have buzzkill in mind?

I have suggested a sound for "check" and "checkmate". This would help in speed games esp.. Classic Caissa had such a feature.

A good idea...Indeed, I am curious as to what are the next planned features for the site and with what timetable...Admin? (I know that I've a got few things that I would like to see)

Hey Spud! I have wondered for years when they would fix the FORFEIT rating function so you could see who walks away and disconnects and forfeits...They waste our time...Some of us have real lives unlike the folks who only have their chess personas...getting hooked up with forfeiters and disconnectors is such crap...But that FORFEIT% feature has gone nowhere for years,...So don't hold your breath (Unless you are near Raptor or Wizard!)
