Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
The starting player is supposed to be random, but if premium member has chosen white as their favourite colour, they get to start the game. Depending on game strategy, this may give unfair advantage. This still happened at least week or so back. I noticed this accidentally, since I had white as favourite colour when I still had premium account.
