Chess Game FAQ
How do I start a game on ChessMoneyBet.com?
To start a game, one user must create a new match first. After the game is created, it stays in a waiting status until another player joins.
What does “Waiting for Player” mean?
“Waiting for Player” means the game has already been created, but no opponent has joined yet. The match will remain in this status until a second player enters the game.
Can I cancel a game while waiting for an opponent?
Yes. If no second player has joined yet, the player who created the game can cancel the match at any time. This gives users full control if they no longer want to wait.
What happens when a second player joins the game?
As soon as the second player joins, both players are notified that the match is now ready for the opening moves. However, the game does not fully start until both sides make their first move.
When does the game officially start?
The game officially starts only after both players have made one move each. White must make the first move, and then Black must respond with one move.
When does the timer start running?
The timer starts only after both players have completed their first move. If only one player has moved and the other has not responded yet, the game is not considered active and the timer does not start.
What happens after White makes the first move?
When the player with the white pieces makes the first move, a notification sound is triggered. This alerts the player with the black pieces that it is now their turn to respond.
What if only one player makes a move?
If only one player has made a move, the game does not begin yet. The match becomes active only when both players have made one move each.
Why doesn’t the game start immediately after someone joins?
Joining the game is not enough by itself. The platform requires one opening move from each player before the game is officially live and the countdown begins.
Will there be a scheduled game feature in the future?
Yes. A new scheduling system is planned to reduce waiting time and help players find opponents more easily.
Scheduled matches FAQ
How will scheduled games work?
Instead of creating a game and waiting online, a player will be able to schedule a match for a future time. This allows players to announce in advance when they will be available to play.
What happens when a game is scheduled?
When a player schedules a match, all active users will be notified. This makes it more likely that another player will be available and ready to join at the selected time.
Will users receive email notifications for scheduled games?
Yes. Scheduled matches are intended to trigger email notifications to active users, informing them that a specific player will be available at the selected time.
Can a game be scheduled, for example, two hours in advance?
Yes. A player may be able to schedule a match for a future time, such as two hours later, so others can prepare and join more easily.
Why is scheduling useful?
Scheduling helps reduce idle waiting and improves the chances of finding an opponent. It creates a more organized and efficient experience for active players.
