grenv: again ... my point exactly ... I know you jest but it demonstates that someone may try to use time to pressure the opposition which surely is a very poor way (and I would declare unsportsmanlike) of trying to secure a win ... a win should (at least on a turn based site) be based on ability not on who can trump another's move immediately to force time to be the deciding factor. I guess a vote against this suggestion would place you firmly in that camp.
I have won many games where the other person, for some reason or other, has timed out. I find those very hollow victories and think that it is sad that others would even contemplate conspiring to win in this manner ... but it is their life I guess. At least I can say that if anyone has timed out against me I have always been willing to accept the game back again (and even suggested it), even if I am not in the stronger position as some of you know.
i agree, winning by timing out is bad. I just like to play quickly. If you time out against me I'll have it reinstated. Except Dark Chess of course. :)
well you just cant win lol people moan at people for moving too slow ,and now because they move too quick ,
if people are online when im online i will move as many moves as possible in that game ,not to try and catch them out ontime ,but because i like playing fast .if i didnt i wouldnt play two day limits .
Just a different perspective Jason ... so long as each is allowed their point of view and noone considers theirs superior to the other we can all be happy!
WisperzQ, your points, as always, are good ones. By contrast, my problem is the reverse of yours! When players take a very long time to move I lose interest in the game and sometimes offer draws, even if I have a won ending, just to avoid all the time it would take. I'd rather clear the game and try a new one with someone else. Of course, I must cross my fingers and hope my new opponent is more expedient than the last. I know this is a turn based site and I have no problem with those who move once every day or two. My frustration is with those who consistently move no more than once a week! I know they have every "right" to do so. I see no reason why multiple options, such as adding the time as you suggested AND indicating moves per day per game (per game type) as I suggested, cannot be implemented. I believe features such as these would dramatically improve the gaming experience here for everyone. The fervent and ongoing debate over this issue appears to confirms this.
