I messed up

Quick update on my previous post.

Hey everyone,

this is a short update on my blogpostregarding the mobileapp Preptile made for opening training in standard and antichess.

first of all: I'm very grateful about the positive feedback and intereset I have received from you. This makes me really happy!

Based on requests from some fellow players I will plan to make the following extensions in the near future (1-2 weeks I hope):

  • Integrate the variant racing kings, and
  • Integrate the variant horde

into the app.

And finally, to address the title of this blogpost: I slightly messed up during my final upload of Preptile to Google Play!
I accidently copied the wrong curated standard files (A wide range of openings, e.g. Italian, Caro-Kann, English, etc.) such that each file consisted only of one single line - instead of hundreds. The reason for this oversight is quite simple: On lichess, when you export the PGN of a study's chapter, you can choose between raw pgn and pgn. If you select the wrong one, it is only the main line without its variations.

Anyway, I hope to have fixed it now (check if you have automatic updates in Google Play, otherwise please download the updated version) and I'm very sorry about this inconvenience for those of you who already wanted to practice some Italian or Sicilian or Slav Defense and were, while expecting a complete line set, disappointed to find only one individual line.
To make it up to you: Here is the study I used to include those openings in the app - just copy the chapter pgn and upload it into the app, then you don't have to watch an ad or something to unlock it.

In case something is still not working properly, please let me know. I'll try to fix everything as quickly as I can :)

Thanks again for your intereset and best wishes
