I've recently begun to wonder about people who wait a LONG time to make a winning move. I have a game going where I've lost, if the other player would just make the final winning move. Instead they are waiting. I am now wondering if it is to see if my rating goes up, so that the calculation will be more in their favor (bringing their rating up even higher). Maybe not. But, I do know this: From now on, I will resign when I know I've lost....Instead of placing a peice off to the side like a lot of us do...
