New game settings problem

I was looking for a short and sweet correspondence match.

I wanted a maximum time of 36 hours. Eight hours Fischer time.

Looks like I got 36 days. I would like it to be set to what I expected. I will die a century before this game comes to a close. Definitely not what I intended.

Looks like I cannot upload pictures here.

This is the game: http://online-go.com/game/678613

Is there anything I can do besides cancel?

I couldn’t reproduce. All time settings worked as planned. I went for 36 hours + 8 hour fischer and max time of 36 hours.
I also tried 5 minutes + 8 hour fischer and we found a bug.
Black doesn’t get the fischer increment on the first move. The game is here http://online-go.com/game/679601
I’m not sure if this is also the case for live or just corr. games

whoa your input fields are way different than mine. I only see 00:00:00 in the time fields so if I put 08:00:00 I get 8 hours
Edit: Maybe manually editing the input fields get’s funky results. Your picture says “1 Days”. I could only get “1 Days” if I manually edited the days instead of using the arrows. If I use the arrows I get “1 Day”. Also manually editing the other fields will end with weird stuff. I mainly used the arrows to set time and then when I see the time format as 00:00:00(or something similar) I will edit the correct values in.

Thanks for sticking with it.

What I entered when creating the game has stayed with the game information function yet the output is much, much different.

I use speech recognition so it’s easier for me to just say what I want as I go through the fields.

I expected the old time format. I was surprised that I could put 36 hours. Apparently, the code wasn’t checking for natural language.

Indeed we’re only checking for the formats we produce in that input field - adding hours wouldn’t be too hard i don’t think though… i’ll look into it
