There are still a lot of puzzles on this site which clearly should be removed, cause they have multiple solutions or end in lost positions.
I have reported many of them, but recently I got some puzzles again, which I already reported a long time ago. So I wonder if this reports are ignored and why.
@test123 Can you link us some of those puzzles so we can see what they are ignoring? Also how long ago did you report them? It may take the moderators time to remove them (especially if they are working on other things like some of the links being broken on this site).
This one has multiple solutions and I already reported it a long time ago: lishogi.org/training/nCHRP
There was another one which I cannot find right now.
And there was also this one which ends in a lost position: lishogi.org/training/mAsIz
@test123 Thank you for the links. I agree that the puzzles seem odd in some ways.
I also saw a tsume puzzle earlier that had multiple solutions. The least they could do for those if they don't want to delete them is to make them so that they don't take away points when they are gotten wrong (and not all puzzles seem to take away points) but still those puzzles should only have one answer like is intended and not many like there are now.
Well, a couple of things:
First, the puzzles don't get "reported" necessarily. I think I looked into it before, and the thumbs up/down give the puzzle an internal "score".
When the score gets low enough, THEN the puzzles either get manually reviewed, or more likely, automatically removed.
Second, the puzzles you are looking at are rated like 2600, they aren't going to be as "high quality", as they aren't going to have as many votes as the lower-rated puzzles. There's going to be a lot more oddballs there.
And third, I'm pretty sure there's only a small handful of devs, so whenever you're saying "they should x, they should y", you're really just talking about like one or two people who are making this whole site for free. They're doing their best.
The site will improve with time as long as people support it.
@LizardWizard under the thumbs up/down, there is a separate button to report puzzles.
