Pedro Martínez: before each person had to make 2 moves ... ive always been able to resign after just one move in this game. until now

coan.net: Not a tourney match. I made one move, hit a frog, went to resign lost points.. game in the past was deleted no points lost after just one turn

Frog Finder (JohnKad66 vs. Rose)

So now we cant resign frog finder after just one move without losing points? used to be if you landed on a frog on the first move you could resign and not lose points

Obviously I'm the only one that gives a rats** about this scoring change that is nothing but dust in the wind.. good to see nothing ever changes around here.

I was told that on czech boards he is saying he has no intention what so ever of making changes to this game. 

I guess the silence means there has been no decision made

rod03801: Yes I agree but this way with the scoring adjusted for a wrong move on the first turn that the player has some sort of chance of winning. The way it is set up now the person has pretty much no chance of winning  the game if they kill a frog on move one.

Any decision yet on the new scoring idea? To at least not give the other player 5pts when a frog is killed on the first move?

rod03801: I totally agree on a steep penalty IF a person kills a frog once the game play is on. Youre right is avoidable once the first moves are made. I just find it so unfair that you have no choice but to guess at one hopeful vacant spot and when you kill a frog you have pretty much NO chance of winning that game unless your opponent has no clue how to play or you get super lucky and get all 5 before they get the 3rd

I like #1 in that the 2nd player gets no pts if his opponent killed one of their frogs ON the opening move.

Option #3 would work as well. I appreciate that you have put thought in to this. Hopefully there will be enough discussion to make a change happen to make the game more fair

Is there no one else that plays frog finder that finds it so unfair in the game that if you kill a frog on your very first move you are pretty much going to lose? It stops people from wanting to play and makes it a very unfair game

I don't think anything will be done unless more people speak up about it. It is very unfair.. U make one error you might as well resign as you have no chance of winning really. Unless youre playing someone who has never played before and keeps guessing all wrong. I don't play noobs, so I am going to lose every single game I make that one single error in.

Hopefully more people may speak up about it and we can get the scoring changed

Someone here said the other day that when a person loses ( has frogs not found) they lose pts when the winner finds all the frogs.. OR close to that was said
Frog Finder (Rose vs. A663)

I hit a frog right off the 'hop' so to speak in this game, I got all the other 4 frogs before my opponent even found his 4th frog. He had 20 pts before I found the last one.. STILL has 20 pts at end game. HE did not lose any points.. The game really isnt fair if you are going to automatically lose if you hit one frog on your very first shot. U have absolutely ZERO chance of winning or even tying!!!
