Uchess needs a seroius sort out. I just won a game on there on time and it didn't give me the win on time, it just added another 10 seconds to the guys clock and he ended up beating me. 😠

ya, I know if I come up with an idea you guys always wine and comeplain, do you need some bread with that wine.

ya! I forgot we live in a sinful world so people will always cheat.

I've not really enjoyed using it, there are too many people only wanting to play 1 min games, the site tends to drop the connection to games more often than not, you have no control on who accepts the games you advertise there so it's very hard to set up a game with a known RHP opponent.

I think it would be better to scrap uChess as it stands and allow "live" games to be set up as any other game in RHP and then just use the uChess interface to play them, if it could be improved not to drop the connection.
At first sight, I thought this to be a stupid idea. On second thought, If russ beefed up his servers and charged an extra say $15 for the ability to play live as well as correspondance, that would be great. You can move on all your correspondance games and in the meantime play a live game when noone's moving. That might actually be a really good idea.
