i play Yahoo chess and always use a timed game, i always set the time with NO increment ( 0 increment). last time while my opponent time finished and i had about 50 seconds left, the game did not end and kept counting my time... this way i lost the game. i had this 3 times during the last week.

any advice please? how i can cancel these games results, anyone from yahoo can review the last game?
regards

Abandon Yahoo. Hackers can change the clocks. They could anywhere, but o other site winning because you played better instead of cheating is seen as better.

William B doesn't know what hes talking about. Its a glitch with the new yahoo chess. It happened to me, against me, and in my favor hundreds of times. Some ppl started cursing me saying that i cheated when i won the same way u lost. Don't be stupid and accuse the other person of hacking because they are not. Yahoo does not have reliable support people because their money comes from ads so they dont have time to review ur games. Why do u even care about one game, u can make up the points lost in another game. Last time i checked yahoo rating points mean nothing.

Hello --



I have never liked yahoo chess ...



FICS is a free chess server. They use a better timing system.



You have to uses a special program to make it work -- but it works a lot better!
