Hi bassem, In Informant Chess (10 minutes chess) you can promote your pawn in the seventh row. You can read this info when entering the lobby. Wishing you a nice day and good games!

What you’re seeing is by design, not a bug. In Informant Chess (10-minute games), promotion happens on the 7th row, not the 8th. It’s a variant rule specific to that mode. Next time, read the lobby info before starting, or better yet, bookmark this -

Every rule has a reason. You just have to look in the right place.

You posted this on 25 April, the same day you were playing Informant Chess. Informant Chess follows its own variant rules, including promotion on the 7th row. Your match history confirms you were in that mode, not Blitz or Rapid. There’s no bug. No new rule. No mistake. Every battlefield has its own laws. If you walk onto it without reading them, the blame is not with the ground.
