I don’t seem to get any games at 10+5 or 15+10 from [chess.com](http://chess.com) (still waiting for Lichess). The status is logged in, and I’m on firmware 3.3.5.

Do you see my attempts at all? SN 445660112

Thanks.

My time when I just tried was 0800-0830 UTC, and I waited for about 5 minutes in each try.

Is there any issue with me playing from New Zealand? Now that Chesscom does a bit of geolocating and moving people to different play servers?

Have you tried doing a hard restart on the board and logging out and back into your [chess.com](http://chess.com) account?

Should not be any issue with New Zealand that we are aware of.

There have been some rolling outages on the [Chess.com](http://Chess.com) platform - we are looking at the logs now. As of right now all looks to be running fine.

Confirmed there was a temporary outage 1am - 4am (USA time). This is the same time of your posts so I am assuming that was the issue.

All working now. We are looking into the cause, but I don’t think it was on our end. If any issues remain, please let us know.

Thanks for checking.

It’s 1840 UTC right now, I did a full Reset All through the settings and relogged in to my account, but even 3+2 can’t find opponents.

Same here. I just tried playing online for the first time since I got the board, but I haven’t been able to play a single game. They never start—just stuck in a queue forever. I did manage to launch a game against a [Chess.com](http://Chess.com) bot, but after a few moves, it froze, and the bot stopped responding.  
I’m in Portugal.

If you restart the board, is it still an issue?

We are taking a look - what are the [chess.com](http://chess.com) account names?

Sorry, forgot to add these details. Yes, it is. I’ve tried to clean credentials in the app and re-log in after that. Also I restarted it several times and forced the firmware update from the app.

Can you please verify you can matchmake on the [Chess.com](http://Chess.com) platform outside of ChessUp 2?

Yeah, the user isn’t banned. Browser functionality is fine.

Developers will be back in USA Tuesday (holiday weekend here). We will take a deep look at your account then. Sorry it is not working for you.

Thank you, I can still play on Lichess via the app or ChessConnect in the browser. Just the onboard chesscom is the more convenient option.

And I hope you’ll get to doing onboard Lichess (with board API instead of a proxy server) - then ChessUp2 will be perfect! 🙂

Lichess will be out within a couple of weeks on beta. If you are a regular lichess users, and have not already, join our beta group and you will have it very soon. Email [info@bryghtlabs.com](mailto:info@bryghtlabs.com) with subject “join beta” and we can add you.

I used to have the same problem but i think found something that helps. When you push the [Chess.com](http://Chess.com) bottom on the board screen, wait few seconds until you see the [Chess.com](http://Chess.com) green icon beside Wifi’s one. Then press Play and you will find a pair much faster!

What is this black magic? 🙂 But the pawn did appear, and I’ll check if pairing gets better.
