Predictive Moves….
I thought I was aware of a rumor several months ago that a feature allowing a player to set up a response to an assumed move was being worked on. Meaning I open 1. e4 and set it that if 1… c5 then RHP will automatically move 2. Nf3 for me.
Any word on that?

Can you tell other how you use this?
For months, if not over a year, Russ told us he's working on it and I understood some people had the opportunity to test it, but it's unfortunately not there.
Really unfortunate, as it could speed up boring ends of games quite a bit.
From what I could read, I have the feeling Russ tries to make it too complex, where you could even program several alternatives, and you corresponding move(s). I think most of us would be really happy with a simple thing: if the opponent does this, play that for me. Period.
Perhaps Russ should somehow force more people to register and pay to play, so he could afford another developer....

No, not at all. I actually made a humorous comment and withdrew it so that I wouldn't offend the admins. I was going to make some comment about how long the implementation might take. Sorry.

EDIT: LMAO at that image--Russ getting a daily smack-down from yet another knuckle-dragger who doesn't understand the en passant rule.
