Argomento: Poor form?
Just looking for some opinions on this - do people consider it poor form to resign the 3rd game of a 3 game match when you are leading 2-0, just to end it sooner? I'd do it when down 2-0, but I don't want to deprive people of that third game if it's going to bother them. The result of the match has already been determined, but the fact that they don't resign could be an indication that they'd like to play every game. Or they're just not paying attention.

Thinking about it, I guess I'd limit this strategy to people with lots of games going, as opposed to someone who only has 10 games on the go.

Carpe Diem: Always propose that option to your opponent rather than employing it on your own. This will give them a say in the matter. I think most people enjoy playing a game out, even in an otherwise losing cause.

Argomento: Re: Poor form?
JerNYC: Agreed. I would only see the point of resigning if you are limited in the number of games or are needlessly dragging down a tournament. Otherwise, what's one more game?

But maybe that's me, as I play in Brainking for the fun of playing games, not for the BKR or number of wins.

Roberto Silva: Right and even if I've lost the match, I can still get satisfaction out of trying to win the remaining game(s). Every game is an opportunity to hone your skills or learn something.

Carpe Diem: i play also for fun and not for the BKR, but when a loose is 100% the game for me is decided and i loose the interest to play it till the end. i think it's individual, so if you feel to resign a game, just do it.
