does blitz affect the correspondence chess rating or is there a separate rating just for blitz?
I just won a game on blitz. Yes. I know. Thank you.
I want to exit out of the game so I can win again but a pop-up box says: ]i["Please confirm you want to abandon this game. Please note: You will forfeit this game and your rating will be affected." [/i]
My opponent's time ran out. How do I collect my winnings?

Can you find anyplace where it says you have a separate rating for Blitz? They have some bugs to work out, errors like yours don't affect anything right now that I am aware of. Save your PGN out so you can relish in your victory and share with your friends... don't worry about the errors until you have a rating to affect.

Last page, look at Russ' post... good I can start shedding points on blitz too! Terrific.
I have received that same error message when leaving a blitz game with a player that ran out of time, although the win wasn't awarded. My rating was unaffected anyways when I left

Blits also needs a nice fat FEEDBACK button so Russ has a view of the problems rathern than digging through these threads and feedback he gets through RHP Correspondn'ce feedback.
