General Chess Discussion - Onwards and upwards!#20

That's good news! I am curious to see a graph of new registrations / week and total number of games played / week to see how they correlate with the lockdown and Netflix's "The Queen's Gambit". Any id…

Lichess Feedback - Where does the prize pool money for the new prize arena tournaments come from?#11

@lovlas I do appreciate all the efforts of lichess volunteers and I agree that individual users have enough ways to offer suggestions or ask questions. My point however is that, to have legitimacy in …

Lichess Feedback - Where does the prize pool money for the new prize arena tournaments come from?#4

I don't necessarily disagree with the decision but have two remarks: 1) You should probably add these costs in the "where does the money go" spreadsheet on the donate page for full disclosure—and not …

Lichess Feedback - Lobby graph suggestion#1

Lichess Feedback - swiss tournament#30

I made a similar suggestion a while ago, I will repeat it here. There should be two kinds of tournaments: 1) Easy join, easy leave, fast-paced, i.e. exactly what Arena tournaments now offer; but also …

Lichess Feedback - Lichess shield#8

Slight variation on this nice idea: Not just an arena tournament, but an elimination one (or swiss). The winner is granted the right to play a match of several games against the shield bearer. Names a…

Lichess Feedback - Specific color for Mate in #n#2

I have thought about this, too. In addition, I would love to see some unit for the vertical axis. For example: +-1 (pawn), +-3 (piece), +-9 or more (queen or more) and above that a line indicating for…
