Now the full RHP game history is back online (see site announcements), the new (beta only) Game Explorer database is repopulating. This will take quite some time to complete - so you might not find any of your games right now if you haven't been on the site for a very long time.
Regardless, you should not see any errors, so feel free to poke about and report anything if you do.

This was my first game here, vs. Paul. If you try and play through it from the starting position, it is totally messed up. The moves shown are not possible to even make. It has been that way for a long time.
It is not important but I thought I should mention it, since it is an error.
@russ saidIt's two separate thoughts mashed into one post sorry.
Can you explain further?
Most Clan challenges need a little work or need to be declined straight out. Some clan leaders create challenges that are by design favorable to their clans. This may be the point of clan leadership for some and the road to creating a "successful" clan. Some leaders create challenges that attempt to be fair for every board. Winning is not the point - playing is.
Green means go. It is an inviting little icon, and as clan leaders are clicking around too fast - playing games and reading forums posts and checking their clan - it is more likely that the icon will be click in a moment of madness. I have both Accepted and Declined challenges without meaning to - thinking I was previewing maybe, but the mouse had a mind of its own.
The contrast of Green/Grey implies (maybe subconsciously) that green is "better". It's is in color and that has to be better. Maybe if Green is Accept Decline can be Red. I think that would lessen mistake clicks - it would be more obvious you are selecting a specific action (accepting games for others) .
Not to belabor the point (they said belaboring the point), I don't think there are any clan leaders who think, "I wish it was easier to accept challenges from other clans."
Or I could be completely wrong. Clan leaders? Beta testing is the time to speak up.
Minor bug: When I scroll through former years of the clan ranking I am automatically sent to the current year (first page works for the years).
Oh and not specific to the beta: There are buttons for looking at the years 2016 and 2017, but no other years in the "recent Challenges" bar.
Oh and of course all the sorting lists revert to the most points after page 1 but this was reported years ago.
@they
You said "I don't think there are any clan leaders who think, "I wish it was easier to accept challenges from other clans."
As a separate issue from the point you were making in the, thread I doubt many leaders would agree with the above question.
I'm going to post your comment in the clans thread along with some of my own.It should get some response and maybe some beneficial changes.
@ponderable saidThe clan ranking page should now be fixed for all permutations of searches and filters, without the current view being lost. (Page number viewed is reset after a search though, by design.)

The 2016 + 2017 buttons...now show current and previous year, as you would expect.
