Rematch feature

I think a great feature would be to provide the ability to delay initiating a new game after the end of a game.  I typically don't ask for rematches but accept all rematches, but I'm so quick to start a new game that by the time I see the rematch request, I've already started a new game.  If you could have a setting you could toggle on and off that would disable the new game button for say 3-4 seconds, that would allow players to accept a rematch before going on to the next game.

maybe u should just analyze all your games so you see rematch requests

I just want to play blitz chess, not analyze games. lol! Anyways, this is a good feature request for people that motor thru games.

Then post in the beta club for ideas for new features, not in general forums.

Also if you're suggesting stopping yourself from getting a new game for that time, I'm all for it. Otherwise being able to block others from doing so because of your decision is something chess.com probably won't allow.

That's what I'm suggesting. Sorry, site feedback seemed like the appropriate place to post.

That works, I'm okay with that. Usually beta gets the earliest use of these features, site feedback has more to do with existing software and criticisms of that from my understanding. Glad to see you're not one of the many "I NEED A REMATCH!!" users out there.

People don't need to post about suggested new features in the  beta club. Unless they just want to be part of the beta, the better method is to use Help > Make a Suggestion

 

This category is acceptable too, but things like this may not be seen by staff and suggestion tickets make it easier to get to staff.

Yeah, that's a very good idea, I always like the idea of a rematch, especially when I lose but less so when I win, but sometimes I'm keen to try and make it 2-0.  I hope this idea gains some traction and is implemented in some shape or form.
