This is not the case. North and South is assigned depending on who was selected as start player from BGA. Then each player always sees the board from his perspective, so you alre always at the bottom and your opponent is always at the top.
Just go and check your previous games. Or open a game with a second player on the same PC in two browsers and compare the labels.

Thanks Alex. I meant in the observer mode, rather than as a player. When you are in observer mode its hard to see which player is which.
Another issue is that the "playback from" ... function does not seem to work? I select the beginning of an (active, uncompleted) game, go to the beginning move to see who has done what, but it doesnt play back.

Ah, I see. Yes, I saw that myself, I have no idea why this is happening and unfortunately, I have no influence to this behaviour, it is part of the framework. The replay function works, but within a game it behaves strangely.
