Subjekt: Action Points
I am playing two games og Go, against the current Action Points leader; he is hopelessly lost in both games and I guess the only reason he continues is because he gets 2 points a move!
I would like to suggest that, instead of points per move, each winner awards points to the loser on a scale of 1 to 5. Clearly, a loser who has played quickly and maybe resigned early, will stand a chance of being awarded more points by a grateful winner. A loser who has been slow or played on unnecessarily (as in Backgammon) will get zero points.
Thus, we award points to players who directly contribute to the well-being of Brainking!!!

tonyh: I can't speak for Go, but a GREAT feature would be automatic termination of a backgammon game where the result was a foregone conclusion - gammons and backgammons considered, of course, for cube matches.

tonyh: Agreed. There is nothing ruder in my opinion than playing on when the result is 100% known. Resignation is the only honorable path.

Having said that, if the site can calculate such a position and end the game immediately all the better! I second (or third) the suggestion.

grenv:  Well, I have to say I have seen many forms of behavior that I considered more rude than that.  No doubt it is generally rude (bad sportsmanship) to hold an opponent hostage when you have clearly lost.  However, everything changes in the light of circumstances, and since Fencer has chosen to implement this silly action point system, IMHO a player cannot be faulted for collecting them in whatever way he chooses.

tonyh:  I'm actually indifferent to the system, except to the extent it causes me inconveniences such as the refusal of players to resign lost games.  However, this is not the only reason players refuse to resign I am sure.  Some make a point of stretching games out long after they are decided, presumably in the hope the opponent will eventually encounter some personal misfortune that causes them to time out.

What's the problem with not resigning? I don't expect people to resign the moment they know they've lost, nor do I resign myself should that be the case, I see no point in resigning at all. Is it that much of an inconvenience to some players? I'd say the lack of auto-pass is a much bigger inconvenience.

M132T003C:It depends.  Sometimes, I realize that the position is a totall loss for me, but I won't resign.  That's because I don't know whether my opponent knows he's winning or not.  But in a  gammon game, where it's obvious than one is losing, I see no point in keeping the game there, especially if the opponent is  apawn and may need the empty slot.

King Reza: My point was that, re Action Points, you get 2 points just for making a move!! So that means that games will go on even longer than they do now!

tonyh: I don't see why. Anyone resigning a game can easily pick another one at the waiting games room and keep getting 2 points per move for playing at that game.
Or send an invite for another game.

pauloaguia: Also, there surely must be a difference just playing idiot moves, when one has a totally lost game - and playing moves in a new game, where one is trying to win!
Or don't the Action Point enthusiasts care one way or the other?
