When i accept a game I find that I am a color that I dont care at that moment. Is there a way to find out what the opponent s offering?
In most challenges the colour will be automatic, meaning that the player with the lowest rank will play as black. If the assignment of colours is specified in a challenge it will be in the listing.

Usually in real life, the player holding W willl guess whether the amount of stones Black is holding in his hand is even or odd and if he gets it right, he gets B and if not, White. Since it’s online it’s all automated.
I have not seen any other server implement this guessing feature but it would be cool. Though unnecessary.
Is that really so? I had always assumed that it was random. I guess that’s why I’ve had better results with White.
It is really so.
When creating a challenge you can chose:
- a specific color you want to be
- automatic color which gives black to lower ranked player
- or random, which choses the color at random (as random as possible in computer world)
