Hello! new to Go here… I cannot find a bot that will play with me, each time it times out
From your history I see a bunch of bot games where ogs thinks you were the one to time out. I wonder if there’s something funny with your networking, or maybe even less plausibly something wrong with your account on the server side.
Did you see the bot moves? When you submitted your moves, did the status text say “submitting…” and stay there, or did the UI indicate that it was the bot’s turn to play?
Also, if a mod might split this thread out then that would be nice!
Maybe alicermatt1 just didn’t know that he had to confirm the move?
Maybe, but I do get a steady trickle of reports form players that the “bot is not making a move” but when I go to look at the game, then the game record has the player not making any moves. It could be that the players don’t know to submit their moves, or that they are having network difficulties.
But I’ve seen enough reports to be curious about what’s going on. So if anyone can observe this happening and is around to debug, then it would be interesting to try to figure out whats going on.
Eg for @alicermatt1, all the games they tried were fast, and it looks like a new account, so unlikely they had submit-to-move turned on:
And they tried different bots, and always seemed to be unable to submit any moves.
