Unfinished games should count for rating

Sort:

I would like moves in unfinished games to count for ratings. So when I gave away my queen but didn't resign yet, my rating would drop even so.

This would only require an engine to evaluate moves done so far.

Not exactly sure what you are suggesting here.  All rated games on the site that have a sufficient number of moves (4 I believe) get rated when they resolve  (resignation, draw, checkmate,  and win/loss on time).

What do you mean by unfinished games?
If someone abandones the game, the other automatically gets the win and therefore the points, too.

You mean a move by move rating? ie ur rating changes during the game based on the strength of each move vs 'best' play?

No one does this in real life, and for good reason. I suspect this is trolling (?)
