Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
The countdown timer on the confirm button always seems redundant (you already have a turn clock), but it is particularly bad when playing an asynchronous (turn-based) game.
One of the best things about playing asynchronous games is that you have a chance to examine your moves and think about the results before moving on (especially when learning a game). And no other player has to wait. So adding a ten-second timer when I should have 24 hours to complete my move is . . . not good. -
• Please explain what you wanted to do, what you did and what happened
• Which browser are you using?
Google Chrome v131

Report history
I would rather not have the confirm/undo option than only have a confirm with a countdown timer.
The purpose of this countdown is here for players who forget to validate their move.
