### Summary Currently, it is quite easy to overlook a correspondence game tha…t has entered the scoring (stone removal) phase, where you are required to mark/confirm the life/death status of the stones. Suggestion: increase the visibility of these games with the following changes - Send an email notification when marking or confirmation of stones are required. - Add these games to the rotation of games where its your move to play (as accessed by auto-advance or clicking the number in the top-right). ### Environment Website behavior appears to affect all browsers. Seen on Chrome and Firefox on Linux, Windows, and Android. ### Steps To Reproduce: 1. Enter scoring (stone removal) phase of a correspondence game, but leave the stone status unconfirmed. Alternatively, you can confirm stone status first, but then have your confirmation cleared by your opponent changing the stone status. 2. Cycle through games with your move to play (by auto-advancing from another game or clicking on the advance to next game button in the top-right). 3. Check email for notifications (if scoring phase entered by opponent making second pass while you were away from the site). ### Additional Information: This issue is described further as the second item in this forum post: https://forums.online-go.com/t/two-suggestions-related-to-correspondence-games/17979

It seems that it is on the To Do List
