Hi guys, hope everyone is good.

I have a question about the explorer. Can anybody help explain what all the numbers are for please?

Do you mean that column of numbers listed in decreasing order?  Those would be the number of times that move had been played in the database.  Or do you mean the percentage numbers on white, black or grey backgrounds?  Those mean the percentage of time white or black won or the game was drawn.  We good?

Baddogno, hi man, cheers for replying bud.   Yeah man, I mean both.  The column that is decreasing which is on the left & also the percentages.  I've always just played chess cause I love playing but this morning I looked into what else the app has.  The Opening Explorer was there, but I don't understand it.   Thanks again man.  Regards, Neil.

The numbers are famous games played with the selected moves, the top of the list is the most common and the bottom is the least.
