Hi,
I know this is a new feature and I kind like it but some players are taking advantage of a bug that came with it - If you hit many times times the 'add 15 seconds' button very quickly, your
opponent's browser may become unresponsive.
My opponent did that one move before the checkmate - The tab which I had the lichess opened became unresponsive. I managed to see what happened opening a new tab.
The guy who did that to me: shifty_ks
The game: http://en.lichess.org/5z1ovrs4
I use chrome.
hmm, I use chrome and it freezes sometimes too, independent of the add time feature tho, and often at the conclusion of a game, tho sometimes during as well.
Have you replicated the bug? To make sure adding time was indeed the source of the freeze?
I think what you say makes sense, BigThree. I'm working on a patch to avoid this situation.
Mb, It proved to be hard to replicate playing against myself. Probably the lag in the communication between two players has an important role in this bug.
However it has never occurred before to me and I can guarantee a player adding extra time many times in sequence before a checkmate is not a good thing. But I see your point and I wish I could have
replicated the problem before posting.
Thibault, thanks for taking a look into it.
Okay I've set up an basic flood protection
