Subject: Doubling cube.

I am unfamiliar with how the doubling cube works. i was in game with a person and i was up 4-0 and during the beginning of the 5th game my opp send a message requesting to double the gmae. i had two options to either accept the double or to resign the game.. can you force a person to resign while using the doubling cube?

Nothingness: the short answer is no. they can however force you to choose between resigning or doubling the value of that game, it's your choice but you do have to choose.
