Conditonal Moves

The conditional moves feature is awesome when you are in a winning position and your opponent is dragging out a horribly lost game. If he keeps seeing conditional moves they will most likley resign. However, gameknots conditional move feature is set up like that, RHP only allows one conditioal move at a time...

It only allows me to move one conditional move at a time. It will not allow a second conditional move. Half of the times it doesn't work either!

There is a delay between your opponent moving and the recorded conditional move taking place.

Too bad - it would be optimal if the server checked for conditionals right when the opponent hit "submit move", and immediately informed the opponent that a conditional move has been triggered, along with updating the board.

The conditional move code has a bug--it won't allow en passant.

It was decided in design discussions to introduce the delay.

I'd like to see the following conditional "move".

IF skull appears THEN click skull (no delay).

I agree - very useful if you are on vacation and cannot manually skull somebody.

Can the conditional moves program be integrated into a forced move program? So that forced mates can be played out all by the winning player, the prog only stopping were the opponent has more than one option?

Given that there is a delay, if I program a conditional move, my opponent makes the anticipaed move and I change my mind, is there any opportunity to make a move before my conditional move takes effect thus cancelling it?

I wonder if it's possible to play the whole game in conditional moves? Like a simple fools mate or whatever.
