I used to play long correspondence games against bots (ddk mostly) but suddenly these are out of acceptable time range for all bots… is there a way around this?
Having new automatch options of 5m + 5s and 5m + 5x30s is awesome. But the settings seem to be broken.
Every time I tried being automatched in the middle category (I tried both exact and flexible) I was put into a game with 10m + 5s or 20m + 5x30s.
I think that’s not intended, is it?
Yeah - it’s a known bug, thanks for reporting!
Ah good workaround, thanks!
Suppose my rank is 13k.
If Opponent Ranking +1, does it mean 12k or 14k?
I always wonder that too
12k.
It’s definitely hard to get your head around…for example, if you’re 13k then +1 means subtract 1 to get to the stronger 12k player. If you’re 2d then you add 1 to get to the stronger 3d player.
No need to add or subtract anything. Knowing that +3 means three stones stronger and -3 means three stones weaker is enough to understand this.
I’ve been wondering how we could make it clearer.
Maybe we should have the word “stones” after it?
I feel that might replace one confusion with another (handicap stones).
I like ‘stronger’ and ‘weaker’, possibly written above the selection boxes.
