Feature Request: Different Puzzle Modes

[GoodChessMind]

Recently, a chess website introduced puzzle rush into its features. I noticed a lot of chess players are addicted to this and stream this quite often on twitch. I would hope that your website implements something different and better than what this chess site has already done. I think this would attract a lot more users to your site.

I would like to propose a different type of puzzle mode feature than puzzle rush. You could do this by having a time limit such as manually setting up any time with a certain amount of puzzles to solve in that time limit. This could be done individually for a user who is trying to practice improving in puzzles.

Another puzzle mode would be challenging friends. You would manually chose the time you want for both sides. For example 10 puzzles with a time limit of 5 minutes for both sides and see who can solve the most puzzles. Of course both players would have to have the exact same puzzles for this mode.

You could also create tournaments for what I described above. You could have an hourly 10min tournament for example, with all players having the same amount of puzzles and the same puzzles to solve to see who can get the most correct in the 10min time frame. This could be called puzzle arenas. Also, manual puzzle tournaments by users can be created as well.

Another sub-feature would be to include puzzle ratings. The puzzle ratings would be for different time controls.

I do realize this would take A LOT of work to program. I'm not sure if there is a way to automatically pick the puzzles or if this process would have to be done manually, which would be extremely time consuming. I would hope that the puzzles would increase in difficulty as you get more correct (if this process is done I think this would require manually making the puzzles?) I'm also not sure if blitztactics has unlimited capability for puzzles.

Also, perhaps another drawback could be cheating. However, I don't think cheating would be a major issue since it would take quite some time to actually enter the puzzle board position into your chess program for each individual puzzle. Unless there is some sort of auto engine that people can download online that examines positions.

Hopefully there is somebody kind enough to program these features. Please consider these ideas.
