We have been conducting a large scale data cleansing exercise in preparation for the migration.
This appears to be going smoothly, but with one tiny caveat for only blitz players:
If you signed up to RHP and have only ever played blitz, without ever completing a single game of correspondence, you may find your account removed.
This will impact only a few players, but please do accept our apologies. This is unavoidable as we deal with large volumes of data.
If so, just recreate your account. As no stats are recorded for blitz, a new account will be equivalent to your old account minus the profile information. -You can use the same name too, of course, with a new account.
As some compensation, we will attempt to improve the blitz site (with proper rating and game record) soon, technology is already being investigated to make this happen. Therefore, this situation will not arise again in the future.
