KGS Android client -- saving demos?
How do you save a recording/demo game on the KGS client? I'm able to open a game, give it a tag, and make moves. But I don't see how to save it to the KGS server or locally.

I believe you need to open the game info and add a tag once the demo is started, then once you leave it will save.

What I have been able to do, is go into options -> Load Game. This looks like a list of Demonstration type games that I had created using the desktop client. They are listed with my KGS user name and the date. When I open it I can tag it, and that replaces the KGS user name in the list.
I can also record a game from scratch on Android. I can tag it too. But after exiting it does not get saved anywhere.

Strange, for me if I start the demo from android, then after making some moves I go to "Game Info" and add a tag, the game will save. Full disclosure, the two times I tested this I also added at least one additional move after setting the tag under game info. I don't know if this makes a difference (I may test it later).

Ok I figured out the problem -- I was testing with less than 10 moves. When I made more than 10 moves it saves it on the kgs server, regardless of if I tag it or not.

Hmm, interesting! I guess that means my test games where I didn't tag were all less than 10 moves. An unintentional oversight on my part.
