Selectable or random sides on startup

I hate it that its always the first that comes white.

If you are playing a friend via invite the invited will always be black. And when you are waiting for some time for random match you will always be white. It would be so much better if players could decide on pieces at start or if it would be made random.

You're right. Click on the big arrows in the middle of the board before beginning a game. You will get the black pieces.

can you make it so that random games assign colors randomly unless you specify what color you want to be?

The first post...

;-D

This still happens...

When challenging someone choosing random sides I'll almost always be white and when challenged with random sides I'll almost always be black.
